News & Announcements - 75,000 members strong!

Our 75,000th member registered yesterday!

We hit 30,000 just last may (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=104830), we have averaged 75 new members a day for the last 18 months!

The community created 150,000 new threads, and 2.5 million new posts in that same time period!

Very impressive, keep up the good posting and remember to keep the site newbie friendly! :)

Joe, you rock for making this place happen!

I'm glad to see this site has so many members!

Okay hurry...we need more red stars. Gotta make the server larger!!!!!!! :eek:

YAY FOR US~~~` :D

2.5 million.

Really amazing.

Awesome stuff! :D

Dang. Thats a lot of people. But heres what I want to know, how many red star members are there?

Awesome, Joe! Popular forum you've got going here! I'm pulling an all nighter since I'm flying out at 6AM (supershuttle is picking me up at 3:30) - so, wide awake but no one to talk to! All 75k members must be asleep! :D

The better question is how much of that number logs on more than once a month?

Of course a tiny minority. But the truth of it is, that's the same with every large forum.

Awesome Joe!

- so when are ABG, Specialized, Trek, Bell and others going to start taking out corporate advertising?

(are their marketing departments run by idiots? where are the Bell coupons for a new 2007 Atmos? what about a free saddle bag for a new 2007 Trek?)

I think about 4000 of them are crash vector :p

What accounts for the rapid gain in members? Do you know?

Pie!

How many are donating?

We're all part of a sleeper cell too.

"The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep. And miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep."

Pie!
hehe...we have pie! :)

We need the unstarred visitors to complain about how posts by starred members waste storage space...

:mad:

75,000 members, eh? We should all get together for one big group ride. :p

Sounds like a sausagefest to me! Egad!

wow, that's incredible! Imagine now if they all donated to a place that offers them so much, now we'd be talking!
congrats Joe!

Err - feeling guilty? No one's saying anything negative about non-red starrers, but we are curious how the red star experiment is working out for the health of the site. I believe Joe once said that it would be successful if 2% or 3% of the total population (about 2,250) did get a red star.

Sounds like a sausagefest to me! Egad!

Sounds like, looks like, smells like, feels like and tastes like! Lucky you :eek:

I think you counted Explody Pup and Eboo twice. It is hard to count them as they are always all tangled up and wriggling around. So it is really only 74,998. Still not bad though.

How much of it is Foo?? :rolleyes:

This is all because of the NTWC. We did this. Without the ntwc thread we wouldn't have like millions of posts.

Yeah, now we need an East Coast Mob (you got 3 hours on us), or something similar.

Oh no I was smiling but then I got mad because I like some of the socal folks. :lol:

Phhht, the land of fruits & nuts. :lol:

Some folks just can't help that they live there. Others just become the culture.

75,000 members....25 bucks a pop. Damn, Joe...that's $1,875,000. That's a lot of Chimichanga's my friend. :eek:

Yay Joe! Congrats on the numbers! Thank you for all the work you do. :)

Wow, sorry I asked.

Can you name all 75,000 members?

sure, but they are not gonna like what I call em!!!! Your new BF name is Flounder.

I don't think he'd mind flounder.

cold dose of reality>> "75,000" "members" with around 600 members viewing at the time of this post = low volume forums

lotsa "air" in that statistic

Hey man - no quips about my weight!

I think this site is awesome and thanks Joe for all the work you and the other silent peeps do to keep it running smoothly!! :)
