i was just wondering how many people are members on this site, just thought thatd be a cool thing to know

Spooky · Mar 05, 2005, 11:23 PM // 23:23

694 registered users at the moment.

Whosa Skylore · Mar 05, 2005, 11:26 PM // 23:26

wow....amazingly thats less than i thought it would be

Spooky · Mar 05, 2005, 11:43 PM // 23:43

In all fairness, our site hasn't been public for all that long, either. Factor in that there are already sites out there that have huge forums (such as TGH,) which people are more likely to have ended up at first.
If this site ever reaches Official or Elite, i'd expect to see a spike in the amount of users because of it - as a new player looking for fansites as a source of further information/discussion, they won't immediately see anything different in our listing from all the other "News and Forums" sites. I suspect that a large percentage of our existing user base is here only on word of mouth - either as a result of the site's content, or the people that are running it.

well im routing for you to get to elite or official! i love this site! well i didnt mean it as an insult or anything, but more like a compliment

lol

Loviatar · Mar 06, 2005, 12:16 AM // 00:16

i simply visited several sites and started at ogaming but this is much more informative and congenial

i do not need the *status* of a big site

small or large the information and order is what i enjoy

if i can help someone i consider it a bonus

EDIT

[COLOR=Red]the info is at the bottom of the forum main page including posts members etc[/COLOR]

WolfpackEE · Mar 06, 2005, 12:48 AM // 00:48

I found this site because the Guild Wars site has it listed as:
"Our Current Recommended Site:"

And thats the only one listed

Whosa Skylore · Mar 06, 2005, 12:52 AM // 00:52

well if we are all saying where we found out about the site, i found out about it when i voted for dragon assassins in like the top website thing, and at the top it said "guildwars guru the only site that looks good in a bikini" so i had to come visit, yet i still have not even seen a bikini

this is not the smartest thing to say considering the past week or so has been on warning, and banning spammers. also ill make another thread about where you learned about the site, first ill have to search it, but this thread is kinda off topic, look for it in QandA

WolfpackEE · Mar 06, 2005, 08:33 PM // 20:33

I didn't post to say where I found the site. There was a post about this site becoming elite or official. While it doesn't have that status, it is listed by itself at the top of the forums page at guildwars.com which is a nice distinction. And yes I know 'site' is singular

Nova · Mar 07, 2005, 01:12 AM // 01:12

I am here because it is thefirst link on the fan site list on GuildWars' main site's FAQs. So yeah, it helps people to find an awesome place and stick with ti when you are the first place they check. And liek Spooky said, since they haven't been up too long(I didn't knwo that

It is fair to say they have alot of memebres (which they do!) especially since its only been a short period of time. that is a great ammount of members. Godo job, keep up the good work, admins.

Aladdar · Mar 07, 2005, 03:11 PM // 15:11

I think we're doing fairly well considering the amount of time we've been live.

Whosa Skylore · Mar 07, 2005, 04:35 PM // 16:35

how long have you guys been up??

Aladdar · Mar 07, 2005, 04:40 PM // 16:40

Feb 6 was our official unveiling to the public.

Loviatar · Mar 08, 2005, 01:47 AM // 01:47

what is the difference between
an elite
an official
and this site

i have been looking over some official sites and the answers in the forums seem less informed than here

enlightenment would be appreciated

is there any way members can help advance the site standing?

Some combination of the raw quality of a site, and how much Gaile likes site staff.

Peace,

Aladdar · Mar 08, 2005, 02:08 AM // 02:08

official sites are sites who have been recognized by arena.net to offer great information and have great staff. I believe the elite sites are granted that status by arena.net for having gone above and beyond the call of duty in creating their sites.

Even though we have some fairly well respected individuals on staff here (namely THX, Saus, and Spooky) we've still got to earn our stripes just like every other site out there. I think it speaks highly that we're the current recommended site however.

For the answer straight from the horses mouth, you can check this link.
