50,000!

As of this post, we're just 19 new members shy of cracking 50,000 total registered member accounts!

tick tick tick tick...

Wow!

Will the 50,000th member get confetti and balloons dropped on them when they walk in the door?

Nice .

This time next year it will be 100,000 I bet.



I get the feeling 2006 will be a good year.

That is fantastic news!
Heck after the TV show starts airing, we will hit the 100,000 makr long before the end of next year!

That's the BEST part of this incredible place. We have people all over the world who have great minds, contributing here, 50,000 of them!

Springer...

I'd say nearer to 5,000 great minds. [Joke]

Glad to see the site is growing, even I can remember when there were only 30,000...the rate which it is climbing and will climb in the future will make this place even better.

To the future!

Congratulations.
It's doubled in just over a year.

This is what it was in November 2004:

Well, considering that my UID is 36312, that would mean that 23k+ people have joined since I have. That is an absolutely amazing thought.

Here's to the success of ATS, and to the fact that our growth is not limited by any physical constraint, but to our imaginations.

I just checked my UID and it's 11344 which means ATS is more than 4 times larger now than it was when I joined in 2004.

UID=2964.

The growth of ATS has been awesome, and well represents the hard and innovative work of the upper [ie: SO, Simon, Springer] and lower [ie: the administrators, supersmods, and mods] echelons of ATS management and the valued members that make up the ATS community, in general.

Definately amazing to witness.
Great work by all.

1,000 podcasts and 50,000 posts in the same day, can we go for a hat trick and break some other record? How about most members online in a day? That November third record's been there for over a year...

The Feeding Of The 50,000

Wow, that's a whole lot of members.

I wonder what would happened if all 50,000 of us posted to the same thread at the same time?

2 years ago there were about 3200 members, so that's 47,000 new accounts in 24 months. This was only possible due to everyone that makes up the site, members and staff alike.

Good job EVERYONE.

UID 2746...

and I'm just a youngin'! This is some kind of growth...it's like a tumor or something!

LOL - congratulations to ATS and the wonderful, growing community it is.

Congrats ATS. I think it's time for some vertical integration, dudes.

Just imagine: "ATS Bread- Baked with stolen alien technology!"
"ATS Water- Now with 20% MORE secret ingredients"

Well done.

Congrats ATS! With these types of numbers it means that 1) there are either a whole lot of open minded people who will dig for the trust rather than except something at face value or 2) there are a whole lot of curious people out the in the world who want to learn more about this world we live in.

Congrats!!!!
