While I can't tell you the exact numbers, the forum number is NOT correct. This represents registered users that visit the forums. If you register and do not log into the forums, you are not counted in that total number. Suffice it to say, it's a LOT more.

Oh go on give us a number!! Just for curiosities sake!! Don't make me use more exclamation marks!!!

(To head of a cheeky random number answer I shall clarify that to 'Oh go on give us the actual number of total registerd players at the moment!!')

The exact number of registered users is between zero (0) and one trillion (1,000,000,000,000).

paul has started a trolling trend in our admins and devs!

I am ecstatic that there are so many players already signed on to play. Although i would prefer to know the real #. Can you imagine the first day this game starts. there is going to be a fight to get server/ playtime.

[L zard]

Well, we will have a good chance to see how the hardware works, for sure! One hopes that there will be enough servers to handle to crowd, LOL!

True, but I believe the higher number PK is referring to are the lurkers, temps, and folks who just don't want to, or can't, be sucked into 10,000 conversations at a time.

EDIT: If they are reading this, and they want to play, they will have to register for a pilot name before the game goes active.

So... after the game goes active, no more players will be allowed to sign up?

[LakeDaemon]

yeah thats how it will be

You know, I don't think any of us have ever asked what the actual numbers are. I guess it doesn't make any difference, really, in the execution of our daily servitude duty so really isn't at the top of our list(s).

We can leave the harvesting of all this critical information to the news guys and their sources

i wonder what kind of questions you guys ask over coffee and fatpills, to perhaps inform us freebirths as to whats going on here in the forums.

I don't know about most of you, but I've been send the link and passing the word..... I know I just heard about this site a week ago (randomly), so let's get the word out!!!!!! Maybe the devs can start a reward program.... :-D
