oblivion 5 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 You forgot the "I don't care" option (there might be some insensitive souls out there) Link to post Share on other sites
Dims 0 Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 Ooooops sorry, an oversight on my behalf. I also forgot the "comeback under a different name" option, or the "lurk like buggery to still see what's going on" option. Link to post Share on other sites

Goemon 0 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I hope he at least comes back for the promised season end report with full-on powerpoint diagrams. I eat those up with a jealous appetite. Link to post Share on other sites

Davo 1 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I voted never again. DB pretty much said so didn't he? He strikes me as the type to set his mind to something once he decides. Now if I threw my toys no one would give a toss would they? Be thankful you've got a poll you godamn new age lurker! Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Yeah, I agree Davo, I reckon he is that type of guy too. Might see him back occasionally, like he said. Link to post Share on other sites
sava 0 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 This makes me think, am I the only one who thinks that the forums have been changing a fair bit lately? I've only been here for about 15 months and lurking for 6 months before that but there the off topic forum especially isn't the same? Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Nah not really, Ive started using this again the past few months after about a year off. Id say theres slightly less traffic than before but generally, apart from that incident, people still nice to each other which is an extreme rarity on internet forums.

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan#Andrew 6 Posted March 24, 2006 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted March 24, 2006 Just to correct you there bobby12 looking at the stats. Generally there is more posting traffic than this time last year, and it increases every year. (Certainly more 'just reading' traffic). Of course every day is different with different people logging in and posting, and there always seems to be a slight decrease and 'quieter period' when the season is coming to a close as some of the less 'hardcore' people don't turn up as often.

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan#Andrew 6 Posted March 29, 2006 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hi Goemon. Without going into details..... as you might expect, generally for the site as a whole the months December to February are the busiest 3 months of the year, with January usually giving us the peak numbers. On one day this January there was one day that saw over 20,000 unique users sessions and over 15GB of bandwidth chomped up. The least busy months are July and August, but even those months (increasingly) see a fair amount of traffic making their way here - apart from people using the forums of course there are a lot of people planning for the next season (and wanting to try and escape the heat probably!)

Goemon 0 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Quote: one day that saw over 20,000 unique users sessions and over 15GB of bandwidth chomped up Wow! Thanks for the info. I imagine you look forward to less activity in the summer months (although, I'm sure you're all busy then too with upgrades, etc). Link to post Share on other sites

Well from our point of view the summer months are definitely less frantic - keeping those daily updates and the like going for 5-6 months every day is a big effort! As you said though we are busy all year round with other types of work for the site. Link to post Share on other sites
