It has peaked though as you can see.

[Bleys]

That's quite a jump...

[ses5909]

I think it will continue to grow. I think you will experience another peak, but it looks like your daily average has gone up either way! Not bad at all.

[stymiee]

Still, a ten-fold increase in posts seems to be the net gain so I'm sure you have no complaints. Plus the higher post count should make this place more attractive to new members.

[Johnny Gulag]

I agree it seems that your forums have officially "taken off" and will only contuinue to grow over time.

[Dan Grossman]

It'll only last if we keep posting. And honestly, I'm no good at starting conversations.

[KLB]

Okay everyone you heard Dan, get to posting. If you're no good at starting conversations, here are some threads I had started in hopes of getting some good conversations started on a topic not related to you know what:

Hey, I already replied to that third thread. I put some numbers in there too.

I've created my own thread, but it's barely on topic for this forum, if any forum exists to answer that kind of question. Maybe some people can relate anyway:

Nice work there Chris. Hopefully you can get up them a bit, great job

[Cutter]

Good stuff, thanks for wasting even more of my waking hours

I've started my own thread for discussion, debate, and mockery:

Don't know how keen you are to doing this....but it would really be interesting to get or make public the Forum Statistics in terms of Referrers, Search Engine Keywords, domains etc....


It becomes really interesting when a old forum topic gets ranked high for a keyphrase on Google - and just keeps bringing in new people to the forum

Nah, people will start starting threads with those keywords. Which is not what a forum is about.

[Erin]

Well, that peak was inevitable as people expressed their feelings about the cause of the spike.

You're off to a good start. I imagine one day you'll be thinking that getting unceremoniously axed by SitePoint was the best thing that ever happened to you.
