  • So we have almost 27,000 members...

    ...but...

    Today's Birthdays

    cange1701 , knotte, sweden (17), knotte (17), knott (17), ocalme (23), leglis (28), Ninot (18), Cesa (22), Harm (26), vincepai , CBev (21), Fokker (28), The Hun (26), bchampion (36), rosomak (23), OKoren (26), Kindred72 (31), kevogre (34), jim panse (21)


    I've noticed these kind of DL's before, so my guess is that the total number is more about 10,000...

    I can't help but think that Dan or Markos also know this but don't take action because 27,000 sounds more impressive than 10,000

    Or 250, after all AH's DL's are deleted

    Oh, it's Ninot's brithday. That's nice.

    Did the guy with those DL's ever post with any of them?

      He probably just forgot his password and created another login.

        Don't know, but I never heard of the guy before.

        Who's Ninot, and if you know him why don't you start a happy Bday thread in the forum you know him from?

          He's a Civ3/PTW DemoGame guy.

          I won't start a Happy Birthday thread, 'cos that's a bit spammy, but I'll send him a PM.

            Ah, that explains... I don't have PTW and don't think I'll buy it any time soon...

              I think that any account which hasn't had activity for six months should be put on "hiatus," and if there's no activity by nine months, it should be deleted.

                The Member list is just an advertising scam.
                Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..

                Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

                  I think they get better advertising money with the member list being so large.

                  So my suggestion?

                  Create more DL's to help generate more revenue for this great site.

                    They probably get an extra cent per year for every 1000 members!

                    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                              People often return to the site after a long while though. I think you may be right, for those with less than 100 posts, say, because there are bags of registered users that fit into this category.

                              Still, I don't know how helpful removing unused accounts would be.......if there is no benefit we may as well just trumpet how many 'members' we have.
