Get to know ATS users.

We all know why we are here, but we don't really know the user base we are posting to. I am sure you have wondered about who visits ATS. Well, digging into statistics can help. Two sites to do this are:

www.big-boards.com...
and ATS's very own
www.abovetopsecret.com...

These two sites will give you a better understanding of this site in many ways. I will reply later with screen grabs. Since more than half of ATS users are in the USA, I doubt I will get a response tonight anyways. Also, it seems ATS is in a bit of a hangover/dry period after labor day.

Please post your fun/surprising finds using these stats! I will be back

PS~Do not post direct links to big-boards png's. They are updated frequently under the same img name. Future users might want to see if demographics are changing.

Good guess. 80% of users are white, and 62% are males. Now how many of those are actually both white and male will need another statistician to guess at. I am just to tired for math right now. Any accountants floating around?

How many will shed their avatars and screen names we hide behind to disclose REAL and TRUE info? Just curious???

I took a quick look and was surprised to see that Germany follows USA in most site visitors. For some reason I
assumed it would be UK. Silly me!

That or Canada. We also seem to have a lot of people from Austrailla, either that or they just happen to be more outspoken. I can't recall many people saying they are from Germany or seeing it on peoples location.

Yea that's why I was shocked to see it listed so highly. Keep in mind though that this is visitors to the site, not users. So maybe we just have a lot of german lurkers that don't post.

Yeah I would have guessed US, Canada, Australia, UK, then non-english speaking countries. Where are all the Germans at?

That apparently Asians aren't attracted to ATS.

I'm guessing at least 75% of those UK members are Scottish.

Having been friends with two Australians and spoken to many others, being outspoken is a national trait of theirs.

Australian women giving birth don't scream because of the pain, they scream because their newborn just won't stop talking about all kinds of random crap.
