Mike Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 on the numbers thing 400 now show in soul map which means that 400 can use the "show events close to me" feature of the event guide eg https://www.soul-source.co.uk/calendar?soultype=local-soul-events if you do want to use this one click lazy feature you do need to enter your location in soulmap (just a click - type name of town - click affair) worthwhile doing imo as looking at using the "location" features more in future of course it makes sense for promoters to enter the map details of events as well as wont show in this otherwise Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Everyt time I get a message, read it, then I click NEW POSTS to get back to the forum, it first takes me to new members for some reason and there's always between 1 and 5 new people every time I do this, and I do it every day, so goodness knows how many members there are, must be 5000?

Except only about 100 ever post. Shame. barney i say healthy dont look at member who aint posted (as its never been a must do) but rather use members who visited as a sort of measure have occasional clean ups just looked over 7400+ individual members visited over last year pete 25381 thru door since say 2002 15,700 as active but may change on posting members last time looked over 1000+ members post every week of course that was in sept 1999 - nah a couple months ago those who enjoy stats and such you can view a lot of statty info via the members list (advanced search) but it only gives forum and members only view and would say its limited if looking at post counts etc as gallery,events,blogs,comments,articles,refo, etc dont feature plus guest visits/reads dont come into play when viewing this edit as with all these sort of stats info and such can be read many ways i would and do use the "vibe" more week to week than actual figures Edited August 23, 2011 by mike tidy, reworded some Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
