    A lot longer than 2002. Thats just when this version of the board was created. We switched from a Jawbreaker board to vbullitin and the posts and join date weren't able to be switched. Before Jawbreaker we were on uBB. I joined back in the uBB days, Dec 1999 I believe.

    Nearly everyone with a join date of Feb 2002 was around with the old boards and switched over. Only a few of us are still around from the uBB days.

    I used to be quite active on the board, but I've been really busy and don't find much time to post. My posting record shows I haven't been posting here much since Mid-September.

    So, what does constitute an Active member?

    Far be it for me to bump a really old thread, but I didn`t see any reason to start a new thread for this question. ;)

    I would like to know exactly what constitutes an Active member? I don`t believe this question has ever been answered. Well, certainly not to my knowledge.

    Taken from HERE.

    Threads: 86,285, Posts: 523,137, Members: 84,145, Active Members: 13,917

    I know it`s not that important, but it`s something I`d like to know the answer to.

    Regards Howard :)

    I feel I shouldn't post in this as I'm the newbie but as a moderator for another forum, it's someone who makes themselves part of the furniture of the forum as it were, I for instance have only been a member for 2 months but I recognise "faces" already.

    SNGX and Howard are 2 I seem to see around the forum a lot.

    So these forums have been running nearly 10 years?

    I think it represents registered members who have been active (visited or posted) for the past 90 days.

    Thanks Julio. I take by the "I think" bit, you`re not totally sure?

    Like I said, I know it`s not important, it was just something that made me curious.

    Regards Howard :)

    For some reason I remember talking about this somewhere else, and I think it is also something like 90 days. The system does it in the background.

    Of course someone can easily go from inactive to active, just by visiting or posting.
