[dipstick] Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 Miceless and I are thinking about the fact that this 23 members on at one time record has stood for too long. We are looking for volunteers to participate in a record breaking session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miceless Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 It was a casual conversation, and he had to incriminate me.  It might be fun to organise a mass meeting. What is x-com.co.uk's record? <goes to check> 47! Oh dear, we cant be having that. -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[dipstick] Posted August 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 Well, with over 900 members there ought to be a good response! -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miceless Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 How many of them are active though?  I would assume that even those members who have a few posts would not be up for this as they come to ask questions. Its the core members we need, and i hope we have more than 23, let alone 47.

[stewart] Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 We'd have to confirm with Micah first but I'd say 4 PM GMT on some day would be best, let's not forget our friends in the far east. New Zealands SOL I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[[Micah]] Posted August 10, 2003 Report Share Posted August 10, 2003 According to the hit counter stats, the most popular hour is 2pm EST, so I think 7pm GMT would be best. For the record, the owner of x-com.co.uk had this to say about these '47' visitors: Micah: That's a lot of guests..... T'was a stupid donkey search engine. I had to block the entire IP range as it was trying to log EVERY post across ALL of my forums. Bandwidth going bye-bye  I was on their board when there were 47 guests logged in, all looking at the index.... so the stat is not real, and I guess he's not seen the need to reset the stat. New Zealand does make up a tidy 1% of the site's visitors (89 of them thuis month) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus Escariut Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 hey i was thinking the same thing about why has it only been 23... so how do you plan to spread the word... maybe everyone should put it in their sig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miceless Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 We need some advertising. Should we go passive or agressive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[stewart] Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 Aggressive of course! Okay 7 PM GMT. Let's pick a day, not too soon though, we need people to be aware of it. Micah didn't we once have 40-something once, a few upgrades ago, and it got erased?

miceless Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 Ok, does PMing all 900 odd members count as agressive advertising? Â Stewart? Im sure you can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j'ordos Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 AFAIK you can only send one to 100 members at a time, but maybe admin's can do them all at once. And if not, he only has to click send 10 times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
