i saw that we have over 1000 members XD
That's true! There are quite a lot of frustrated spambots in that 1000 though.
*half-hearted clapping*
1000 members... if only 1/4th of them actually made 1 post.
I just don't get it.
yah my friend has been on for like 2 weeks and he still hasnt poasted:p
1000,
nice
The way fangames like Topaz work is that many people sign up to see if they can download the game that way, and aren't actually interested in posting.
Member retention is quite the important thing for a community, but we gave most of that up when we decided that we weren't Pokerealm. Not an awful thing (we have very few trolls compared to most forums, and we probably actually still get more work done) but community-wise it means that we're a little barren.
I personally see nothing wrong with a small community. To me, the smaller it is the easier it is to integrate everyone into more things and not have "cliques" forming. I just find that smaller grouped places tend to be less intimidating and more welcoming. :p
I totally agree. I don't really want to have a community here with 1000 active people. I'd get claustrophobic, drown, and probably leave. I just think that people should not be joining if they do not plan to do anything here.Quote:

Still, though, 1000 is an impressive landmark.
Although, we may have had over 1000 at the old forums. I'm not sure.
cyndadile,put that comic strip in ''you laugh you lose''
I'm grateful anyway for everyone here who does post.
Definitely. I probably sound very cynical, but I'm really not. I just always seem to sound pessimistic when I try to say something.
Woo~, 1k~! *puts on party hat and throws confetti*
I was just looking for a place to mention, out of over 1300 members of Topaz, less than 200 posted at least once. How does that happen?

Acanthite was far far worse before Charlie pruned all the bots and zero-posters. XD around 1200 members and around 600 are bots and there are only about 50 active members. Kinda sad really.Quote:
