@solomon define active.. (dont bother about inactive, ill figure that out myself)
By active, I mean those who send a post or respond to a thread at least once a day. I know the definition is broad, but with what Phares has given as the number of 'members' on this list, it gives a general picture on what one should consider while sending OT's indiscriminately. If you notice, I send the first email on this thread a day after someone posted one on some language, and I thought loudly, aren't OT's really becoming too much? At least with Adverts, it's clear than just posting a topic without having OT as part of the subject line. That's me, but they do irritate! o_o

The new constitution requires that you release this information...
I do not think a simple answer as to the number of people on the list can harm anyone...
Mods, please tell us...are they 100, 200, 1,000, 10,000, 1, 0000,000 ???
A ballpark figure will do just fine...
ehhh...how many???
I suspect that there are "other ways" of getting this figure (and even more)...but I hope it does not get down to that level.
So, how many???

The mods should behave like real humans unless they are not - if this info will help everyone, have no idea why its being kept. In this respect I will start a motion of no confidence in the mods :-)

Just because the moderator(s) have refused to run a simple command:

Wachana na spreadsheet. The reason the data is not coming is because they believe the question isn't important.
