    Thumbs up 399 > 600

    Yep, we have 399 users on the forum now. Good work everyone, and every single one of those users is a real person due to the registration processes that we have implemented.
    Thankfully we no longer have a problem with spam registrations and have been able to allow the registration process to become fully automated with no need for any moderation.

    Cheers again.

    Its only just 7 months ago that we passed the 400 (genuine) members mark, but already we are getting close to the 500 mark.

    Well done everyone, the forum and site have never been so busy, keep up the good work.

    The forum is definitely at a high point at the moment, the garage feature has been a real hit, and seeing all the different cars in there has been great.

    So everybody, don't be shy in posting we're all friends here, doesn't need to be about a Q4 as you can tell from a lot of my posts, I waffle on about anything.

    The latest new user brings us up to 499. So thats 100 extra users in just 7 months, pretty good going I think.

    So who is going to be the 500th? It feels like there should be streamers and fireworks!

    Not another 100 users, but I thought I'd share this graph with you all. It shows how the traffic to the website/forum has grown over the past year or so.

    Keep up the good work chaps, and keep spreading the word.

    That graph is a bit misleading...considering the amount of visits has nearly DOUBLED in a year!

    It would look more impressive if the vertical angle was a bit more acute

    Well thats the 600 member mark passed.

    All those years ago I never thought that we would grow this large. Who knew that a little known derivative of a not too successful (financially) Italian saloon car would have suce a following.

    I suppose the next milestone will be 1000 users.

    Blimey I can't remember that far back, originally we started on a fully hosted phpbb site, I don't think we could of had more than about 50-75 users on there. Then we went to hosting the forum ourselves on phpbb and I think there were about 150 users on there.
    Then of course we upgraded to vbulletin and have grown from there.
    600 users today, but if anything we are getting more members all the time. I guess we are doing something right.
