@mcalsyn

And how about the newbies?

Mildly interesting statistics:

Of 1959 users, 1290 have earned 0 points.
60 users have 10 points
60 have 20 points
60 have 30-50 points
90 have 50-100 points
210 users have 100-1000 points
180 users have 1000-5000 points (Senior)
13 Master
18 Heros
9 King (congrats Rajesh)
8 Legend
2 Superhuman
1 Immortal

1290 - That’s a lot of lurkers.
All numbers are approximate based on 30 users per user page. And yeah, I was compiling, so I had some time on my hands.

I’m a King, means I’m in the top 20. That’s way higher than I would have expected.

Small clarification.

1959 (or 1965 as of now) are the “active” users. (Looks like it means you have logged in to this site in this calendar year).
The actual number of registered users is more than 20K (20685 as of now) as you can see on the forum page.

So we actually have more users in each category. They are just not presented on the users page.

For example @ Geir - the Master:

Na. That’s the end result of requiring a login to download the bits

[mcalsyn]

@ Architect - true enough, I thought that 2K was a small number and didn’t dig into it. Well, actually, my compile finished and I had to move on. Still, among active users, the number of highly engaged AND experienced active users seems small, but I’ll bet that the curve is probably not too different from any other forum.

@ ianlee74 - aha! That’s why there are so many zeros on the forums. Wait. That didn’t come out right.

@andre.m

registered 2011 and my first order was i think 2007 an embedded master dev board with .netmf 3.x

Oh wow. I remember that display. Was very nice but got discontinued. This brings back a lot of memories wow

[Josh_ghielectroncs]

I could have been #1 but I let some others have the glory :whistle:

[devhammer]

As @ Architect noted, oldest active member is @ Loic, who is actually #2:

#1 is non-existent, or no longer exists, anyway.

Second oldest active user is @ Proxima Software:

@ devhammer - Don’t you guys have any real work to do? :whistle:

@ Gary - Not really 8)

[Gary_Beaver]

@ Mike - Just as I suspected…lol

@Gary

@ devhammer - Don’t you guys have any real work to do? :whistle:

I use a Pomodoro timer (built into KanbanFlow.com), so every 25 minutes I get a 5 minute break. But if you’d prefer, I can use that time elsewhere. :snooty:

[Duke_Nukem]

@ Gary - I guess I can’t say that, so OK I’m playing with Azure for a bit. Then hopefully back to some Gadgeteering later.

I didn’t order anything until March of 2011, but I was one of the first to own a Panda II, as I understand it. It still sits here next to me, now with a FEZ Connect stacked on top. I still love it.

You take 5 minutes every 25?1? Nevermind, I’ll just keep that next comment to myself. 8)

Not everyone can take 25 every 5 like you, @ Gary…

In that case “everyone” should try to find an awesome job like mine! 8)
