Title: Has anyone noticed...
Post by: get2grips on 18 January 2014, 09:47:05 PM
Has anyone else noticed the sheer volume of posts recently?

Don't know if this is seasonal and drops off in the summer but, at this rate we will hit over 170000 by December.

EE exiles;
PD's growing business;

Thoughts anyone???

It has been a lot busier over the last 6 months, with us averaging just over 3800 per month since August, opposed to the usual 2500-3000 per month prior to that.  I'm not sure if there's a specific cause, maybe just more people joining up and getting involved, or the competitions/releases which are always going on?  It'd be interesting to hear from some of the newer members about what brought them to the Forum?

As a 'newbie' the AWI sculpts brought me to Pendraken and the mix of useful and useless info keeps me on the forum  ;D

There are some interesting threads with some good info on painting & basing, some very inspirational photos and some typically bizarre wargaming conversations  :o

I just find it so enjoyable 'shooting the breeze' with everyone.....And it's all so varied and friendly.
Like we've said many times before, it's a lot like going down to the pub with your mates to have a chat....about almost anything.

Somewhat ironic, that at the time I started making the wee men for Leon, he mentioned the Forum.
"Not my scene, Leon..I probably won't bother.....but I'll have a look."
Now... I can barely keep my gob shut !! ;D ;D ;D ;D :-[
