We broke the record!

[o)] That is 04:13 PM at GMT +1 european time, where did these people come from?!

Hmm... that is big. Are you sure this isn't a bug?

I necro'd this post because I think how funny the first post is. Today we hit over 4700 people on PF at a time and we are poised to break the all time number of posts a day. The record is 1834 and we are at 1698.

Wow, fantastic !

Born2bwire

Haha. I remember joining a few forums back within a month or two of their creation. For a while I could read every single post that was made between visits. Boy, is that impossible now.

Moonbear

Yeah, that's pretty hilarious getting excited about 73 members. My, how this place has grown. (And I'm giving my contribution toward the post per day record before the day is over.)

Danger

Yeah, just for Moonie's sake I'll chirp up and post here. Oh... wait... are posts here in Feedback acknowledged, as opposed to the 3 or 4 thousand that I had in GD that don't count?

This will all result in a server overload...nothing else.

That dE_logics chap has a rather odd sense of humour, doesn't he?

At least, I assume it's a sense of humour. Maybe he just likes to post spurious comments.

dE_logics

I said that in relation to the last post of this thread -

BTW physics forums does have very bad servers.

Once there came a message that the site has reached the limit of it's bandwidth usage...and at times it's very slow...close to unusable.

Was that cited somewhere in this thread? If not I don't really see the relevance.

If I'm not wrong (feel free to correct me), there's a "flaw" in the count of people connected.
For example I see "(70 members and 904 guests) ".
It means that there's 70 humans and probably a lot more among the 904 guests. But I think that there are a lot of bots in the guests. The number of people connected is thus less than 974, but there's no way to figure out the exact number or a good approximation.

In the dictrionary next to non sequitur, there's a picture of you.

Greg knows. Even at times that we've hit over 3,000 online, he said there were no more than 500 bots. IIRC.

fluidistic

Glad to know this. Glad to know also that there was so few bots.
By the way, what does IIRC means?

Evo

If I Recall Correctly

fluidistic

Thanks. :)
