Latest Forum Stats and, a look back

[Bob Hubbard]

I just got done running the latest forum stats, and outta curiousity, ran all the logs for 2001 and 2002. It was interesting to say the least.

2002 was a busy year for MartialTalk, and 2003 is shaping up to be even bigger!

Thank you again everyone for making this site one of the best out there!

:cheers:

I don't know what all the numbers mean but I'm led to believe we kick major but. This is a great place to visit and thank you very much for keeping it that way

 

[Michael Billings]

Congratulations on moving from a huge forum into one of major commercial size, and doing it in a way that maintains the integity and professionalism which a lot of your visitors obviously appreciate.

Kudos,

How come Mozilla/Phoenix isn't listed under browersers? I know some people here use that.

Linux isn't listed under OSs either.

Either way looks like its going to be a great year, thanks for all your hard work Kaith.

 

[Bob Hubbard]

I did some shortening. Heres the full stats. Mozilla doesn't show up as a seperate item for some reason.

Hey! What about those of us who use Mozilla? I think I see some browser discrimination goin' on!

I'm using a slightly older stats analysis program. Am evaluating a different one right now, will post the results from that ASAP. (Its bloody slow!)

 

[Bob Hubbard]

ok, running a different program gave extremely different results. I dont trust them as they were 'that' different' from the other programs I use.

 

[Elfan]

Thanks Kaith.

The numbers certainly prove what I've been telling my fellow students... MartialTalk.com is THE place to go. I lurked around on a lot of fora before deciding to register for this one. As a fledgling artist I greatly appreciate what ya'll are doing for the arts by keeping this forum up and running. Thanks for the continued professionalism. Love the ability to talk to such a wide variety of artists from such a range of skill levels.

respecfully,
