I remember a thread a while ago ,posted by Alex I think about how many members there actually are on the forum. I'm sure one of the mods or BAT could tel us exactly but I thought I would do a quick calculation.
There is no way I am going to look through the entire members list counting all paid up members and who used the forum. but I when't through the A's
and counted them.I can't guarantee accuracy, but here go's

Out of 256 members in the A's only 20 were blue
and only 89 of the 256 had visited the site in the past two years.
So that's 12% paid up and 35% use the site at all.
If you extrapolate this through the entire 3775 "members" !
There would be only 302 paid up members and only 1321 who have used the site in the last two years ?????:nenau

Yes but most are not members at all, as most have not been on the forum for over two years many over 5 years,so there not members any more,and you could say never were as lots of there join dates and last visit are the same !!!

No account activity within one year of non payment should be wiped, simple as :thumb2

Perfectly fair I believe, if a paid member then by all means keep them running as a few just pop on every now and again to say hi.

But if there is no activity within a year and no paid sub for a year chances are they're not coming back :thumb2

No wonder the site cant handle all my threads :augie

Should be two years for members who have paid up and 12 months for those who haven't :thumb2

I bet most people would have thought the paid up members would be in the high hundreds if not more,and bat was on to a good earner, but with just 306, by the time you have paid for the hosting I bet there's not a lot left over!
I bet you'd be lucky to get £50 a week out of it,if that ?. it's a hobby!

Don't know who you host with, but I run a few websites/forums and I would have plenty over from 306 paid up members from using my site host. You could not make a living tis true...

Wah am i really reading right, atleast two people agree with me :eek:

And yeah hosting can't be that expensive but as mentioned a hobby. I love this site, sometimes I get fed up of it but I couldn't imagine it not being here anymore :clap

Amen brother, I mean we give you some stick but the forum would be worse off without you.

If I had it my way, Bring Ryan back, Stinka too, I'd have a word with the guy upstairs and and bring Plank and Rustygates back too and that's how I'd keep it forever.

I wouldn't change this place for the world!!!!

I just did another quick count up ,again only in the A's and was quite shocked to see that out of the 256 "members" almost half had never visited the site again after initially joining :eek:

Some may be placeholders so the username doesn't get used

So some of the members have never been members at all,there names earmarked so no one can have them ?.:confused:
this makes the members total even more inaccurate,:doh
It all seems a bit face book friends to me,if there not real members then there not members at all and any one who has not visited the forum in three years is not a member.:nenau
