forum traffic rising considerably

[PastaRocket848]

is it just me, or does it seem like the average, middle-of-the-day numbers for people browsing grassroots central has gone up considerably over the last week? i'm used to seeing 250-350 people, now seeing 450-650 at any given time.

could it be the attacks bringing people to learn more? i hope so!

I see 1250 people on right now.. We have many lurkers on here.

I noticed this as well but I keep a close eye on the number of new members and it has not gone up a significant amount to account for the rise in activity, therefor my conclusion is that the inactive Ron Paul supporters are fired up and ready to win our country back!

So, JoshLowry et al, are we going to have enough capacity on IA and NH nights?

 

[braane]

It should only grow... the forums are going to get awfully busy over the next few days.

This site is addictive. I also think at this stage there will be more people who just want to surf for information and not post. Topics are well covered here and generally posted as they are happening. It can be hard to keep up if you are new to this type of site.

welcome to all new people who are taking a look and all new members

Logged in Tuesday for the first time since 2008. Doubt I'm the only one. The 2008 run left me jaded about politics so I've kept my interest in RP and politics in general at arms length. Ready to get back on the wagon.

Win Iowa.

This is awesome, I lurk from time to time but try only to post when I can add something to the topic. Since this is an easy one I felt obligated to come out of lurk mode.

 

[pauladin]

I just logged in a few days ago after being dormant since 2008. After giving over $1,000 to the campaign last time and not getting any wins, I was pretty disappointed.

But it looks like things can be different this time. We shall see...

BTW, BobMurph, are you the famous Bob Murphy economist?
