Wow, Hostboard is one really popular board. One of the biggest I have seen. What got it so big?

Easy we do what no other UBB does. Compare us to a small EZBoard would be the best example where users create their own board and modify it all on the fly.

There is also ALOT more to come

I guess you have alot more stamina do do better things with your board with all your traffic. It's always tough to start out. We all did at some point.

I have right around 72,800 members right now, there was 36,000 in the beginning of october/2001, so basically I've doubled my member base in 7 months.

I also purged all member accounts with 0-1 post last year and it deleted over 5000 members.

I was member # 10,068,335

What kind of hardware runs your forums? I've seen UBB's with >600 people online at one time, but he ran on twin p3's with a gb of ram too

we run dual pentium 733's with a gig of ram.

Close to 4000 members, with a few hundred active members (that are visiting every day). Now if I could just get "active" to mean posting every day.
