There have never been 100+ users on at any one time (not on the forum anyway, the web site itself yes, but not the forum). Whoever said it was talking out of their behind.

Definitely not as busy as it was a couple of years ago, but still a pretty active forum if you ask me. Pop over to DIV-Arena for an example of a ghost town forum.

Cheers

It's not as busy as it was back when Apollo was new, but that's because spamming isn't tolerated any more. I recall how 'busy' it was back then-- busy as a public instant messaging conversation! The forums are used properly now, and they're actually pretty darn busy as internet forums go.

No way man. Go back a couple of years when 4Rum ran the show, and this place was more like IRC. Almost instant answers and tonnes of people at one time. And it was full of knowledgeful stuff. Luckily I lowered the average somewhat Think it was probably that honeymoon period when everyone was excited about things.

Dazz - a slight case of the rose-tinted ones there I think.

Any chance we can get our hands on a top ten list of people that visit the most per month? It would be fun to see which guys really take these religious visits to the extreme.
