    Of course. Forever is a long time.

    I'm sure this will no economic effects for us. Man, I wish somebody would have informed me about the robotics revolutions so my kids could train before it hit

    The Labour Government

    Just want to mention again that the actual job that this Government is doing compared to the press that they're getting is incredibly out of whack. They're doing ok.

    The Labour Government

    I think you don't have a lot of current experience of the 16-25 job market tbh. It's not like it used to be.

    That's the best £8,000 we ever spent. How much it has absolutely haunted them and infected their heads for nearly 20 years is incredible.

    Bluemoon Popularity Surging

    Honestly from what I can gather from financial terms, and it's not something I get involved in but I understand the costs through my work, if 25% of the properly active user base who have tens of thousands of posts valued this community enough to join the ad free scheme then it would secure the...

    I don't the exact figures off hand but I reckon the ad free tier pays for MAYBE 5% of the monthly costs at best. And that's after years of there being no ad free tier. This forum survives because Ric and his family supports it and maybe people should recognise that more. If something tragic were...

    Guests ad usage can help pay for users who can't afford the ad free thing though. And they can't post as guests, so it's a trade off I guess.

    Pretty much. 85%+ users are usually not logged in when they visit the site. It has grown, in 2012ish it was around 75%. I will also mention for absolutely no reason that we surpassed RAWK in unique user traffic in 2018 and have never had a single season beneath them since then. Not that I'm...

    Bluemoon Popularity Surging

    How that was implemented in the old forum is that each user ID was listed in the database with a thread ID linked to a post ID. So every UserID linked to every thread ID linked to every post ID. The table was hundreds of thousands of rows long and due to the DB engine it used, it locked the...

    It's increased in terms of unique active users by about 20% in the last 10 years and post per week is generally stable. Although the spikes we get now are bigger than they used to be.

    People joke about this but they don't understand how much of a massive performance cost search is. We now (and have for many years) have a machine that does nothing but handle search indexing.

    City are Schrodingers team. We either are failures because we don't have a central striker who can drag us through against relegation strugglers who use the low block (and we win the league) or we're overreliant on a central striker who can drag us through against relegation strugglers who use...
