How many forum members are logged onto the PSGC US Coin Forum at any given time?

SanctionII

I have been a forum member for about 6 weeks and post occasionally. I have noticed that when I log on (usually between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.) there is typically between 90 and 130 persons logged on. Is this common or are there hours of the day, day of the month or months of the year when the number is higher or lower. I see that over 14,000 persons are members of the forum. Wouldn't it be interesting if over 5,000 members logged on at the same time and replied to a thread at the same time. For any techies out in forum land would this cause any problems?

At Present time 135 members. And every time I logged in the number in the range of 90-200.

Welcome aboard Pharmer.

At any given time between about 45% and 75% of the logged in users will be coin
people. When there are no technical problems with the site the number logged in
will vary from about 15 to about 200.

Probably as many as 90% could be on the US coin forum at any given time but it pro-
bably stays fairly constant at a much lower percentage (~70%).

It's tough to guess how many lurkers are out there but judging from the experience
at other sites it wouldn't be surprising if they frequently outnumber users and some-
times by a large margin.

As Cladking said lurkers outnumber those logged in, and I bet by a huge number. I usually only log in to check PM's, and post from logged out status. I think you'd be surprised by how many people lurk here these days.

If you hang out with the late night crowd, the number logged on will drop to under 100. I've seen it as low as in the 30's.

Lots of time when I check my light is off just like in real life.

You don't show up after about 15 minutes of inactivity even if you don't log off.
