# of members ?
 

How many members there are, actually ?
How many active and how many not-so-active ?

According to the main Shrapnel page there are 4097 people registered to post Messages. This is of couse spread out among all the forums (many non-SE) present here.

I'm sure one of the Moderators might have more acurate info on how many out of that 4097 are active and how many of the active ones frequent here.

it is very difficult to decide who are active and who are not. there are many people on vacation or temporarily away for RL reasons, and some only check in on weekends or weekdays. overall i'd say there are about 30 constantly active forumers

I did a little unofficial count and got over 60 regulars (Posts at least once/week). But maybe this is just a good week! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

WooHoo! 10 more Posts and I'm a First Looie! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

He said constantly active, which means a number of Posts per day at least. One post a week is active, but not "constantly active". http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Well, I started counting, and I got to about 40, but it's difficult to say who is "constantly active" and who is not. A few people are obviously constantly active, but many do not post every single day but do post often, so it's hard to say.

for one thing you are http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Perhaps we shouldn't measure "constantly" active by Fyron standards... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif .

Also, I count active by whom I see when I pop in...not necessarily who Posts something. Of course, the term, "active", may infer more than just reading http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif .

Yes, "active" requires more than just lurking. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
