There's still a few of the old guys/gals from about 2004 to 2010 that still pop in every so often. But the core group who is most active the majority of the time is probably in around the 250 to 350 range.

It's a great group overall. Keep in mind that there are quite a few members who are fixated on certain models or certain subjects of discussion. But it's all good.

I'm betting 80% are bots and/or accounts that were created to get in on calendar contest prizes and then never post again.

3 divisions may not be an army yet but it sure ain't half bad, and robotized ones are the future according to DARPA. :winking-tongue

A bunch of forums like this once existed, not many are still increasing users though. With Sal at the helm, this is as close as I get to religion.

Pretty cool. I could be wrong, but I'd guesstimate the number of members who actually post here on a regular basis to be maybe 50 or less.

Nice to see to group expanding.
I find this a cozy and cultured place to spend some time daily, even though I'm not even sure how I end up here sometimes.

Congratulations to Spyderco and everyone here!
