X,000 (25,000) Users! Huzzah!

*edit 11-28-04* Huzzah for EN World for passing the X,000 (25,000) user mark! *end edit*

Below this is for nostalgia purposes only...

*edit 05-02-02* Huzzah for EN World for passing the X,000 (4,000) user mark with the new boards! Moving up closer to the old days... (4,500 users) *end edit*

*edit 01-02-03* Huzzah for EN World for passing the X,000 (9,000) user mark with the new boards! (...and over 35,000 threads and over a half million posts!) Passing up the old days... (4,500 users) *end edit*

*edit 02-08-03* Huzzah for EN World as it approaches the X,000 (10,000) user mark with the new boards! It's been only a little over a month since adding the last 1,000 users and the boards are holding up very well! *end edit*

*edit* I think I will give out a prize or two to the people who comes the closest to guessing when the boards will turn over to 10,000 users. Add your guess in a post, and get it right the first time because only unedited posts will be official. One gues only per person please. Good luck! *end edit*

And with that, the guessing has come to a close. If your name and guess are in green, you're still in the running. I'll try to keep this updated but I am sure that a quick check of the list will let you know how you might be doing. Good luck to everyone!

I wonder how long it will take to get back to the ~9000 users that the boards had before the switch....

Not as long as last time, presumably.

Depends on when the Kwalish Legion finally shows up in force

1,000 users closer...

Mark · 3rd May 2002, 01:32 AM

Add another five hundred...

**Morrus** · 3rd May 2002, 02:46 AM

This is not a good thing given current technological limitations.

Someguy · 3rd May 2002, 03:04 AM

Yes...we must fight back the kwalsih legion!

William Ronald · 4th May 2002, 05:17 AM

If Bill Gates is reading this message, please make a generous donation to Morrus. Or send it to me, and I will make a generous donation to Morrus.

Only if they all start logging in at the same time.

LightPhoenix · 4th May 2002, 06:07 PM

Are they 4000+ different user names, or 4000+ unique users? They're quite different, especially considering the server issues.

Mark · 25th August 2002, 06:05 AM

Hmmm...

Good thing we saved this thread!

Tharkun · 25th August 2002, 08:48 AM

How many unique addys can the new server handle anyways?

Mark · 3rd January 2003, 02:53 AM

Huzzah for EN World for passing the X,000 (9,000) user mark with the new boards!

(...and over 35,000 threads and over a half million posts!)

Passing up the old days... (9,000 users)

Crothian · 3rd January 2003, 03:05 AM

I wonder how many are active? We might have 9000 signed on but I rarely see more then 300 at a time here.

W00t! EN World has reached the power of old once again.

Soon, my friends, will this power flow over and push open the gates...

So many users, ENWorld and Morrus money locked in the vaults of Paypal. I smell a server meltdown.

Well, actually there are 4000+ usernames but only 4 or 5 unique users! HIVEMIND!

Piratecate alone accounts for over 2500 usernames, so blame him.

Welverin · 3rd January 2003, 07:41 PM

Hey, at least we've picked up a new user ore two (and a bot!) since the old days.
