bluehash 1,581 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Congratulations and thank you all! We just crossed 20,000 members yesterday.

roadrunner84 466 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Yay! On a little investigation: 0 posts: 18199 1 post: 607 2-9 posts: 883 10-99 posts: 326 100+ posts: 62 To describe a bit of the actual usage of the forum. I do understand that a lot of folks come by just to ask a single question and maybe a follow-up (1-9 posts), but I am surprised to see that over 90% of the members have never posted at all! The core users (10+ posts) consist of a mere 2% of the members. grahamf72, bluehash, xpg and 2 others 5 Link to post Share on other sites
dubnet 238 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 43oh is the only forum I make it a point to reguarly follow. I can't imagine keeping up if 20,000 folks were posting. Not trying to be anti-growth but I am not so sure that the characteristics that drew me to this board, and keep me here, would persist if it was 50 times larger. I really enjoy the sense of community, quality of posts, good SNR and the really nice folk that live here. spirilis and grahamf72 2 Link to post Share on other sites

pjkim 22 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Out of curiosity, anyone know how many 430 launchpads have been sold? Value line, FRAM, USB? Perhaps it is where I tend to lurk on the web, but I would have thought the sales would exceed 20,000 by now. Some people probably have multiple-- I know I am starting quite a collection myself in 430, Tiva/Stellaris, C2K flavors. Link to post Share on other sites
xpg 127 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Congrats -- to all of us. And thank you 43oh team, you have done a very good job!
