Bluemoon Popularity Surging

[johnny crossan]

I just read our forum got 330k visits and 130K unique visitors in October then wondered how those impressive figures will jump when the 115 ruling is announced. Hope Ric has got a back up server - it could produce quite a tidal wave of visitors.

Most of the new visits will be rags and scouse waiting to get angry when the bomb drops :)

Disable the search function, it'll be fine.

I've always suspected that the forum's usage drops slowly all the time whilst it's average age goes up.

Old people like a good moan though, so whilst there might be less active posters, the ones that do continually find more and more to moan about as they age, so the number of posts might be quite constant. ;-)

I entertain the notion that there's very few actual "new" posters that join, you can spot a returnee a mile off. Never exactly who the person is, but they just seem to come on and know how it works.

I was signed up for years, and never came on. Fairly recent (few years) have I got involved / visited the site. I used to be a poster on NME forum back in the day when I was a student, and some Champ Manager forums too.

Probably a big reason for me coming on was social media going to the toilet.

I feel comfort there is less bots on here, than on X/ Instagram/Facebook etc

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.

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.

Indeed, I know nothing about this forum technically but I've seen environments where a third of total system resources have been expended in this area.

2031 is a way off yet.

It could well surge, IF we lose the case .... the seething, gloating brigade will come flying out of their traps in force, rags, gooners, dippers, the lot !

However should we win the case we won't see or hear from any of them unless they've actually got enough balls to apologise for 'jumping the gun' and wrongly judging us !

Yes, I completely agree. You’re so right with that comment.
Have you thought about the guaranteed returns that investing in bitcoin could bring you?

There is a politics sub forum on here if you'd like a dose of surreal stupidity :)

I often read Bluemoon when I'm having a shit. I like to practice what I preach.

The match threads seem to be swamped with posters that you hardly ever see from one week to the next.

Not that I'm suspicious, you understand?
