It's really the number of guests pushing the numbers, and over 5000 guests in the homework forums.Gad said:Greg! Call upon those lazy PFers to come and join! We might be able to hit it today!
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.

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

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.

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!

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