[Scott Greczkowski]

After last night's Tech Chat some users stuck around and asked some questions about SatelliteGuys and what it took to run a place like this.

So here are some stats.

Date of Birth: September 7th, 2003
Number of Registered Members as of this writing: 18,006

Number of Unique IP addresses visiting SatelliteGuys Each Month: 218,875
Number of Web Pages Served Each Month: 6,413,481
Total Number of Hits a month: 33,469,355

I remember back when this forum started as someone posted on DBSTalk.com they found where Scott was hanging out and I lurked for several months then finally joined so I didn't join when it first started but have been lurking since it started.

Most of my time spent on the internet is on this site and DBSTalk.

The real question is whether SatelliteGuys has more members than Voom has subscribers.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Like how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop we may never now that answer rocatman.

The real question is whether SatelliteGuys has more members than Voom has subscribers.

And if all Voom subcribers are all SatelliteGuys...

Depending on how you look at it, that's either a good or bad thing. Just think about how much more productive we'd all be if we weren't constantly posting here, or reading what others posted.

We would either be doing this or something else and we all have to do something. This keeps us out of trouble
