It's really the number of guests pushing the numbers, and over 5000 guests in the homework forums.

I think we usually have between 100 and 150 members in the forums at the same time, but I've seen it as high as about 190 before.

About 1500+ members visit the forums each day. The peak during the last month was 1759 on September 18, 2012.

9615 (130m and 9452g), T at 10:08 PM.

Hmm, so we need to spread the word PF around, I see... *I haz planz*

Given that over 5,000 people are currently viewing the Homework forums, how are the homework helpers holding up?

Most are guests, but Intro Physics does get a lot of new threads a day.

So for the record (!) which is the record for most members online at the same time ?

I wonder when we will hit 10,000?

I bet it will be finals week early December.

PF had more than 8000 folks on-line earlier, and the number is approaching 9000 this evening. It will be interesting to see if we come close this evening, or even set a new record.

Just after 8 pm EDT, PF has more than 9500 folks online, including 147 members.

Active Users: 9644 at 08:08 pm EDT!
(150m and 9494g)

Love it! We got to get 10k!

This event must to be celebrated, right Greg?

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

Tonight could be it! Everyone online tonight around 9-9:30 CST! :D

No way

I didn't realize at first that this is a very old thread. In first few posts, you guys were celebrating for ~80, yes 'eighty', people online at once (to my great surprise, before I checked the date).
PF (or the internet as well?) has done a huge progress, it seems.

Yep, you could say that. From 80 people to nearly 10,000!

How times fly. That first post was just two months before I joined PF.

I got to a feeling.

We got about an hour until we traditionally hit our high for the day :)

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

We don't keep track of members online, but I see 220 and I don't believe I've ever seen it that high!

I think exceeding 200 members online at once is a milestone. The number of members online today stayed near or above for quite some time this afternoon.

Next activity milestones would be 300 members and 10,000 persons (members and guests) online simultaneously.

Other milestones will be 400k members and 600k threads.
