I have calculated that this other board i post at has about 230 regular members (members with 100 or more posts)

I have calculated that this board has about 210 regular members (members with 100 or more posts)

My theory is that if you create a music board that is relatively specific in it's purpose, and don't advertise it or promote it to the outside world wide web, you will have an approximate average of 220 people posting on it. No more, no less.

That is all. I'm going to write something about Rose Melberg now.

I counter with Hipinion, which started out (like Obner) as the offshoot of a branded online magazine with gobs of hits, and does not advertise, but which has a brazilian posters.

I counter that Obner is intentionally kept a secret while Hipinion, with no official promotion, is public knowledge mostly due to everyone over saying, "Hey, look at me! I post at Hipinion!" Advertising by word of mouth counts, and so you have failed to debunk my awesome research.

Some people there have dozens of aliases, so the userlist is misleading.
And others (like me) are registered but haven't posted in ages.
