If I'm not mistaken, when we had our "Grand Opening" we had the number "26" in the membership counter. Today (as of this posting, anyway) we're sitting at "112." I consider this to be pretty impressive considering the "Network" is less than a month old. Kudos, once again, to all who donated time, resources and money to make this site a reality. Are we having fun yet? :D

To repost from the 100th Member thread:

On Feb. 23, there were 27 registered users, and Chris was concerned about where everyone was.
On Mar. 2, there were 50 users.
On Mar. 15, that number had increased to 80.
On Mar. 20, the 100th member signed up. (Congrats, pearlywhites!)
As of the moment, there are 112 members.

I'm sticking to my prediction of 200 members by late April.

Good work, Bill. Still, that's quite a progression. Hope your prediction pans out. If not, I hope we find a "Drunk Fortune Teller" (That would be a . . . wait for it . . . it's bad, but it's funny . . . "Happy Medium!" -- sometimes I crack me up) :D

Growth Rates
 

For those interested in such trivia:

Since Chris first put this site on the air on 2/21/01, we've averaged about 3.2 new members/day. At that rate, we should hit 200 members on April 25, give or take a day.

It took until March 18 to have 1000 posts, or about 40/day. Since March 18, that has risen to about 77 day, which means we shoud hit the 2000th post mark this weekend.

Where did you get...
 

...those stats? Oh n/m i found them... Is that a new feature chris i never saw it before? (Chris n/m ill ask you in chat when i see you next)

PAUL!

I just pulled them from the member and post info on the main page, and from various posts since this board has been up. The hard way to do it, probably.

The rest is just extrapolation.
