Default 30,000 Members!!!!!

I cannot believe the stats showing that we now have a membership of nearly thirty thousand It seems like only a few months ago we hit the 10,000 then 20,000 barrier and have gone from strength to strength.

2007 was a good year for Briskoda, lets hope that we can continue this into 2008 and make it even better. There are more and more events and meets to participate in and a big National Meet is currently being organised

Someone nerdy (and armed with the info) do a little line graph with how the membership rate has increased, with date as the X axis.

PS: I'm not nerdy but would have a crack armed with the info.

There are only 7000 active members.. not sure what the forum classes as active.

Considering briskoda is 4th in googles index when you search for 'skoda' i bet it gets alot of new members from that alone.

How is 'active' classified.

It might be interesting to know how many long term members there are i.e. with say 250 posts or more.

All these stats are available with raw SQL queries... but the forums may have the functions anyway?

As said, I don't think a high percentage of the newbie actually stick around, but it's an impressive figure now

My question answered, just wondering if the admins/mods are going to go through old/banned users and remove them from the briskoda directory too?

There was a list which was sorted by number of posts by each member, in descending order, i.e. most frequent poster at the top. Can't remember where to find it now though...

I'm glad that some new posters stay around to help others when they can - that's the spirit!

Top name has 27,382 posts but my lips are sealed
