But I assume since sstreet is #42, she's the one with all the answers.

Dang! This is what I get for ignoring 'that other place' for extended periods of time!

555 has a nice ring to it though. You can haz it for a starting bid at 55555 gazillion credits!

A Quick and Dirty Comparison

Recently I posted the exact same question on both forums.

On KBoards, I got 135 views and 0 replies.
Here on WS, I got 127 views and 6 replies.

That result is just one data point, and subject to chance, but it suggests that despite fewer members, WS is more enthusiastic.

I turned in a book last night so feel extra good about procrastinating here :) Then I'm going to finish a book so I don't have to pay a library fine.
Now to see my # … and it's 70. Thanks to Tim and all you all who make this a great place to  :cheers

Congratulations to everyone and all the yakety-yak-yaking (tribute to Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller) going on. Nice to see all the discussions, exchange of information,, and encouragement going on. The forum is building nicely.

What I like the most about this forum is how it was founded, all the wonderful arguments around the ethics of the revised terms and conditions.  :clap: :tup3b :Tup2: That thread at the parent forum defines the sensitivities of those who are present here.

I don't judge a forum by membership count or total posts but rather by the sensitivities they display as it turned out with that epic thread.

Nobody would have imagined these things would happen this year.

Hope 2019 becomes a big year for this recently founded forum. :cheers

Lucky #7 here. Timothy, how the blazes do you end up being #3 on your own site? Who is numero uno if not you?

Profile #2 is OrbitalNuke, which, if I recall correctly, Timothy has already said is one of his alternate accounts.  Profile #1 returns an error message when I try to put it into the URL field of my browser, so I guess that's the "super administrator" account, or whatever the software's equivalent is.

That sounds about right. Originally I wasn't going to admin off my own name, but it happened anyway on about the 2nd reload. OrbitalNuke is my moderator account, which I use for checking how the forum looks to the mods. Forum_scout is my member level account so I can see what the members see. But that one was created much later.
