"Most users ever online was 3,138, 21st November 2013 at 20:47."
Says the statisics on the front page of this forum. Now, when I remember the time somewhere around , puhh, when was that, hard to say, somewhere between 2005-2007 I guess, there was an Update to be released that almost made everyones F5 key break b/c Scawen left us waiting. It was the time when LFS had the best race ever seen: Leagues, Events, 24h races, TV-broadcasting with Joachim "Vykos" Fies and so on. We all though LFS would make it's way to be the most sophisticated and widley used online racing simulator in the "world" imporving from update to update leaving all competitors (R-Factor, GTR, etc.) behind.
I'd say, looking back at these glorious times when LFS was at its best that more than just 3000 people were online once at a time. Or am I wrong? What could have been the reason on the 21st of November 2013 to attract so many people that this day holds the most-people-ever-online-record? Am I missing something?
I guess I'm just getting sad b/c all the lousy games such as Grid, Dirt3 etc. but also the enthusiast games such as iRacing, GTR, Race07 etc. didn't quite satisfy me in terms of car-feeling and handling which always brings me back to this forum and to see nothing happend or will happen. And if it ever happens, it's too late. There will never be such a community as back than and without the community LFS can be as perfect as never seen before, without all the great racers out there that I raced with it's not the same anymore. *cryyyyying* :-D Nevermind.
Back to topic. So, what is the actual number of people ever online in this forum?

) leaving, which isn't a problem as long as you've got enough young talent coming in.
