So your saying forum usage is down.

Maybe they are flying in game instead.


Hardly "down", it's about average. :)
Also, I did state "Once everything steadied out after the Bulletin Board reset it's stayed about level since then with some drops and some spikes, and this is only the forums and I know plenty of people don't use them that play the game."
It's not something to be taken real seriously anyways since anyone can create an account here vs in game where it requires more info.  Plus I did these for fun.

I cannot/will not comment on the in-game arena numbers (respecting wishes) so take these for what they are, for fun and for the forums that only extremely remotely reflect in-game numbers.  Either way it shows that in the forums anyways the interest hasn't fallen! (you can't compare it to the first 1-2 months on those charts as I think all the users had to "re-activate" their accounts).

These were mostly just since people like their Pie Charts and I needed data to fill that pie. :D

Yeah, but it would be best to get the actual facts and figures directly from HTC's metrics... :salute

Actually, it's the only way to get an accurate picture.

I think it is funny that anyone other than HT worries about AH user volume.

Do yall do the same at the stores you shop at??

I do not "worry" about user volume per se.

I worry about numbers dropping so low that the caps mechanism doesn't work anymore. I worry about numbers so low, that we stand in front of 100(locked)-40 players the whole evening, instead of having just a short one-hour ebb before the gameplay gets up to action again.

I don't worry about "their business"  but the impact it has on gameplay at offpeak hours.

And sometimes (actually very often :D) I'm just curious - what impact had the new towns? What's the average sortie length now and then? Do people really fly more bombers than once ago? Many numbers I dig up like those in my posts above are just byproducts.

Also many a graph is just a result of ignorant "No, there isn't!" claims on the BBS ;)

Well while yall are worrying I'll be in the arenas playing. :D

I have my own business to run. I'm not going to try to backseat HT's business.
