    How many members are there to date? I think it would be interesting to have stats on the site somewhere of how many newcomers there are every year. Or is that already a thing? Thanks

    Glad to make your acquaintance #149,239 - i'm #6,723

    If you think about it, the whole numbering thing is somewhat academic. That's because there is a sizable contingent, over 10% I'd imagine, that maybe sign up & then post once or twice or never post or never come back.

    I have not seen Spambot issues here is quite a while.
    Comments like that are sure to win you places on users ignore lists though.

    Hopefully they've moved on to pester the next new thing, the Tesla forums.
