wow this is amazing I'm glad so many people have decided to join today. I have never seen so many members online all at once, its crazy.
Considering that only three out of those 37 new members are women, we can conclude that the 10 times higher than usual number of new members is due to the inclusion of the link on ###.
Wow. o.o Congrats EC! Yaaay new peoples! ^_^ *passes around teddy bears and throws confetti* *does a little dance* *bakes a pie*
If it is due to the message at ###, which seems most likely, I think we'll have a flood of new members for the next few days as underage and curious ### regulars see the message, then it will reduce somewhat as it will just be people who are newly visiting ### that see it. I make it 63 new members since Sunday morning UK time. From the dates of birth, many are in the 14-17 age range, though quite a few are over 18. You are of course all very welcome at EC! Thanks for joining. Some more good news... Even with all these new people on the forum there doesn't seem to be any trouble. We have had no bad posts reported and I've had no PMs about any problems. So it looks like our new members are all decent guys (and girls)! Excellent!
New record, people! Between 12:00 AM and 10:09 PM of today (Uruguayan Standard Time, GMT -3) 37 people have joined EC.
