I've read that there are only 300 posters on DL at any given time.

Are there that many?

[quote] I've read

Doubtful

Which part, R2?

Where did you read this — a NYT profile?

NYT writing about DL, R4? Oh, my sides!

I think it’s more like 30 and often seems like three.

Just the one, dear?

Not 300--3,000,000!

No, but they all weigh 300 pounds.

And they're all "Hang in There" kitty posters in Muriel's office.

Let’s count off. One!!!!!!

r10 She needs them to cover all the holes she's punched through the walls when in a drunken rage.

Does that include the voices in certain poster’s heads?

It can't be done R11. Many posters have admitted they have multiple accounts for trolling. Multiple authenticated accounts and multiple anonymous accounts.

What R14 said. Recently there was that one thread started by a troll (LL) that ended up going into a part 2 thread and I would bet a large portion of the posters were the same person.

Two!!

That might be because this place seems to be in 24/7 primetime of late.

Three! Thread closed.

Yes OP.

Wikipedia say there are 6.5 million views a month.

[quote] DataLounge has approximately 6.5 million page views each month, according to its webmaster (as of June 2006).[1] Mediapolis, a New York City interactive media company, created the site in May 1995.

So there are lurkers who don't post. But millions are reading my posts!

Are those current figures, R20? That citation says 2006.

A page view is when you click on a thread and then after go back to the main thread list page and then click into another thread. That's 3 page views.

Does that mean we ALL get into heaven?

Fuck no R23! We're ALL going to hell where we will wear caftans and crocs and drain pasta for eternity. All of us.

30, and only 4 posting or answering threads.

Gee, R21, is it still 2006 where you are?

Luckily they can all fit in my ballroom!

Kevin Sessums is here?

r20 We were at 1.2 million page views in June according to this and that's a 25% increase in page views from May which I'm assuming is dropping primetime related.

300 posters are driving millions of views? We should get paid and not Muriel. I’ve seen things suggested here that have ended up on TV. PAY MY ROYALTIES!!!

Me too r31. My real life anecdotes I’ve shared here ended up on Modern Family and in the movie Bridesmaids as well as a few others I can’t remember.

Which anecdotes R32?

R32 Yes, there's zero chance your anecdotes might have occurred in the lives of others as well. No such thing as coincidence!

Which anecdotes R32?

Three may be only 300 discrete accounts posting on any given day, give or take. But there are 1000s viewing, the board is public and isn't password protected.

Three = there ^^

Why would DL restrict the # of posters. If anything we need more content. I try but I'm just a podunk poster.

Accordingly RealJock must think it’s as dollars are extremely well spent!

Those thousands of views could be 300 people accessing the site multiple times not thousands of individual views.

Primetime was dropped for a couple of weeks in June, but it's been back full time since. WTF is it always primetime here? Whatever happened to just making "primetime", you know, during PRIMETIME?

Where did you read this OP?

From the free version of semrush . com, 76% of visitors are from U.S., 5.5% UK, ans 5.4% Canada. Average visit duration in June was about 20 minutes. I can't see in the free version how many actual discrete users/visitors, however.

300 but they can pass for 250

The thing is it kind of isn't. Every time I'm auto logged out I get reminded of how shit this site actually is if you don't have an account Links don't show up on the recent posts page, and on actual thread give no indication of what site they're about to send you to, quotes don't display properly, neither do replies for some reason, there are no images displayed whatsoever other than two ads for real jock that are so old the models probably died in a motel shooting about 2011. Yet apparently 1000s of people a month are visiting this site repeatedly to see a page that looks like this.

1.2 monthly views! We're bigger than And Just Like That!

Take that SJP!
