I was just on today and was taken by how every couple seconds there will be a new post, and how no matter when you go online, every article has about ten people posting comments and sometimes more like fifty. Does anyone have any clue how many people have FR accounts?

Does anyone have any clue how many people have FR accounts?

Hint: Sign up for a new account, then look at your account number.

Example: you are freeper number 157498.

I BELIEVE, (because I asked the same question a month ago) there are 160,000 freepers (the poster who answered me said he had asked Jim Robinson and was told that), and there are 15,000 Dem. Underground people. But this was then, I'm sure its more now.

If I am wrong, please somebody correct me.

Any ideas how many freepers?

Actually, there's only 47 of us; we spend the entire day making up new names to post under.

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

There are around 100. But, we all have 2000 IDs, and keep hundreds of windows open. My entire ping list is myself.

Actually there's only two - Jim and John Robinson.

They created a program to simulate an entire community.

About 170,000 accounts exist, but the historic attrition rate is about 95%, so there are about 8,500 active posters, e.g., made a post in the last 3 months or so.

They post so fast and to so many repeated threads we can't count 'em or they're counted twice.
