It seems to me that the number of users on this site has grown at an increasing pace. Has anyone actually graphed the numbers? If so . . . what do they look like?
B&B Growth
- Thread starter Alacrity59
- Start date
probably the same as a graph depicting cartridge prices.

Over 3 years ago a thread would come out welcoming the newest members.... There would be 45-65 names on the list. Exploding growth now. Welcome all new members of B&B and many of you guys who we haven't seen in awhile... Come back and say hello!
I think a lot of guys just register to find out answers to their questions and then never come back. That may actually be a good thing because that means they got all the information they wanted and now are having great shaves.
+1. I would be curious how many "inactive" accounts are registered. This is to be expected though. It's a shame too, because the ones that don't stick around don't realize what a wonderful community and expereice they are missing out on here at B&B.
I like the comment on the cartridge price graph too!!!!!

Actually, I was thinking of many who spent a year or so very active and then.... Poof.... Great guys....
i would think the more people who get shown the real way to shave and are awakened like myself, the word of mouth should bring more and more here. I've actually left little badgerandblade.com post it's on shaving creams and products and normal stores i've gone into lol.
notice how each adjoining line angle is increasing...means that the rate at which people are joining over time is increasing.
Very cool! The growth shouldn't surprise anyone. B&B always has, from day one, been a special place. Joel, Nick, and the mods are continually breaking new ground moving B&B forward. And of course the remarkable men and women who make up our membership, without whom B&B would not be here. What cool place to be a part of!

well said
Just hit "community", go to "members list", then reverse sort by number of posts. Lots of inactive accounts (which is fairly typical).
I think one of the reasons for the growth is that B&B is a fairly welcoming and polite place.

Thanks Rik. If I look at Growth from where B&B hit 400 members up to today growth is at 182% annualized. As you will see from the graph the exponential growth curve is a fairly good match. So if we are at 25,140 today next year we will be at 71 thousand members.

Actually the trend is a little flatter than that but I like to cause a ruckus.

Sounds like a global warming prognosticator.
So...what does that say about those of us that stick around and post obsessively almost every day?
Take a look here fellows. This well show you a few things about the stats.
