Wow ... Color me surprised. Out of curiosity, I ordered the member list by country, looking for lil ol' me as one of the few people from South Africa - only to find over 30 !!!

To satisfy my curiosity, I wonder if you would post a little demographic of where / numbers , Graz? It seems from the list that "The Sun will Never set on the SQL Team empire ..."

Pretty much.
I'm in Sydney.
There is a decent Australian contingent (notice I didn't say respectable )
Byrmol, RRB and I are the main ones, but there are another couple of Aussies that post less often, and a few lurkers.

But yes, if you keep an eye on the forums regularly, you will see that the globe is pretty well represented.

Old SA not very well respresented I must say. I thinnk we have close to forty members registered as being from SA (who knows how many anonymous), and the was 1 veteran (65 posts I think), and then me next ... and I'm still just a starting member.

Still, I must say this has been a very usefull "find" as a resource - I just hope the day comes where I give more advice than questions ...

More Power the SQL Team EMPIRE !!!!

Notice the top row is an empty string, and that null is on a separate row.

The regulars column only counts people who visited within the past 6 months, it's probably a better representation of who SQL Team really is

Updated it to include a summary.

Rob

How about people with post count > 5
That will filter out the people who have not posted, or those who came, got a question answered and left.

Hmmm ... 2151 "active" users
Hmmm ... 4696 total users

For this kind of forums, to have 45.8 % of total users as "active" must be pretty impressive (imho)
