OK, so how many of the 7 thousand members post here

[Dissident Aggressor]

With this cookie feature surely there is a way of determining this. What % of total posters posts in these forums at least once a week?

Actually, I was thinking of setting up a census thread in the OTF. But now that you raise the question, maybe we could do something forum wide.

Or maybe MarkG or DanQ have an easier way to answer the question

4 this far ....

I remember that Markos once posted how many people had posted in the forums in that month or something like that. I don't remember exactly when that was or what the title of the thread was, but if you look back you should probably be able to find it.

[DarkCloud]

I assume 240-700 people post here monthly.

[phoenixcager]

It would really be interesting if the monthly statistics could be posted somewhere.

To be included would be:

• No. of people posting in all forums that month
• No. of people posting in each forum
• Average no. of times people posted altogether
• Average no. of times people posted in each forum

[UltraSonix]

I assume it somewhere between 0 and 7082.

I estimate we have between 250 and 700 regular and semi-regular posters in any given month (similar to DarkCloud's estimate). (Actually, the number could be as high as 1200... it's really anyone's guess.)

[MidKnight Lament]

I agree that it would be very interesting to know these figures. Can't something be set up to tabulate these automatically? I can understand that it would be taxing having to do them manually every week/month.

I think the reason they don't do it is because the true number of unique posters would be revealed...

I just wonder how you thought about this numbers(250-700)...

i'll say that it is ~1000 active posters, and ~400 regulars.

so what's the difference between active posters and regulars?


i believe there are about 1000 posters monthly

[Builder]

active are the ones that enter apolyton once a month, post 2 messages and leave.

al the rest are regulars or dead logins.
