Over 98 million members? And only 2 categories:
1. Those who come just to ask a question every now and then (see the posts labeled "NEED HELP")...
2. Those who spend time regularly here, trying to help other people and share information.

haha i said: LIKE i faked the numbers

It's actually 98628. Still alot considering.

I've just replied to post for a new member and his membership was # 118655 ....!?
So the number you are talking about refer to active members only ?
and does the number 118655 include total members including banned members!?

No, he registered under that DataBase number. In fact, there has been 118655 registrations, but xper deleted a lot of spammers and inactive accounts. When you take the current number of users (98974) from this number above, you'll get the number of deleted accounts..

Actually MSFN is the largest community I've ever visit

Actually MSFN is the largest community I've ever visit with non-spam posts.

ok, no more spam

figures ...

I had hardware.fr in mind: 500k members, 38M posts; it rather looks like a giant shoutbox (plus some highly elaborated messages ).

That is one of the things I love about our community: very high signal to noise ratio.

wooooooch!






Anyway, thanks for the update. And, ohh, what do I see in quick access ?
SPOILER tag ?


Oh. Nice.



The only problem I see is this color gradient on the editor part. Looks like Office2007.

Don't know what is the meaning of this spoiler tags..You hide the txt but when you select it, you can say what it is written beneath the mask..

Let's say you want to reveal the ending of a movie to members, you would use the spoiler tag in order to prevent certain people who do not want to know the ending from reading it.

Thx, now I have a use for it..

Fixed

Happy new year to MSFN, and happy 100.000th member. ^^

What is the maximum number (I mean # of members)that MSFN could accept!?

There is no hard limit. Such things are limited by server/database performance.

What is the feature or the specification for the server that hold MSFN

Dual core Opteron , 4GB of RAM, 2x70GB SCSI HD.
