My Casino Forum has nearly 3000 members. I have an anti bot mod installed, but I would guess 95% of all registered members are bots that got past the anti bot mod.
I will be clearing that out in the coming weeks when the new design is incorporated.
On another note my politics forum which between the two databases used has over half a million posts, has just under 3400 members. Of which 1000 are active, but my active members are set longer than 60 days. I have it set to a year. So active members can be misleading and no one forum can be the same.
Fact it is easy to manipulate the number of members being displayed by vb. You don't even need a mod to do so, just go into mysql and edit the relevant field.
Posting activity in hand with quality of the posts is how I gauge the worth of a forum. Disregard everything else.
