I don’t know the “most members online”-record for the Last Alliance


The Dark Council does not exist anymore. We outlasted them :D
Golden Council still exists but has been “cleansed” if I may use such a word. I am unsure if this was an attack from hackers or not?

The Crack of Doom (now renamed Hacker’s Paradise) was attacked by hackers it seems and has also been removed from the rankings. However the posts, members and threads has not been deleted and instead been put in one simple forum category named The library. They have 42 members, 2394 posts and most users ever online ended at 7.


Golden Throne, the Dancing Lawn and the Fantasy Forum are the new competitors added to the list. I advise people to have a look at the numbers of the Dancing Lawn, kinda a forum similar to ours.

Interesting stuff.

I'd like to see statistics for other forums such as Chamber of Smaug included in this to see how they rank up. Comparing the number of active members we have to the number of posts we have, it seems like we actually do really well compared to the big forums. We've got about half the total members of The Hammer and Anvil but over double the posts.

Aye Ariakas, Chamber of Smuag and its sister site Galadhrim Glades, The Desert Sands and Crack of Doom were all hit by hackers in 2007.

HIC, I demand that you bludgeon yourself with a rock until your mental status returns to the level of a rapist who calls back to apologise! Your use of elaborate language and words is making me uneasy. Although, I am somewhat relieved to see that your punctuation remains shit-based.

I'd be interested to see several forums like Boot Camp, WIP and several other large Forums.

Work In progress has about 2300 members and about 120 000 posts, Boot Camp is large but I cannot remeber the size.

WIP has actually gotten about 5000 members but they delete inactive accounts.

I meant not how large, but what kind of forums they are? What are the fields being discussed?

Boot Camp is a GW forum focussed mainly around Imperial Guard and 40k. Work In Progress is also a GW forum but is about modelling, converting and painting, and obviously showing your work as you go, hence Work In Progress (WIP).

Eh? The Mystic Tower got hacked as well....

[size=1](totally not an attempt to up the members online :P )[/size]


Glad to see Ulthuan is doing quite well, anyway. It's the only one of those others I actually visit - apart from WarSeer, which I just lurk in and briefly look at rumours sometimes... I don't really see the point in posting there...

What did the hackers do to TMTOA, I don't see anything out of the ordinary?

I go there every now and then when I'm looking for some purely Weissland information. Plus it's good for asking those sorts of questions without too many of the people from here knowing what you're planning to write about next. :lol:

Gorfang, I am taking away the medal of perception :P

just kidding.

I do not think we really should compare with GW-sites any more, but since no one discusses FHaG, I guess it makes sense after all.

Anyone think there is a chance that we might get activity in the GW forums again some time?

My perception is better than anyones. I merely under-estimated Lathaon's lack of respect, seeing as several forums were badly crippled by hackers. <_<

Lathaon has always been a respectless hound with no dignity. It was obvious what he was up to. You need to stay sharp, Gorfang! Don't let all those medals and posts get to your head!

((jk about Lathaon btw...or was I?))

"Should you ever feel agony for the loss of your Brothers due to enemy guns, bear through it with a stern smile and let your enemy know that you will get into combat soon enough. His judgement cannot be avoided!

Should your charge falter under heavy resistence, roar your devotion in His name and amount whatever strength you have left at one enemy point and crush it utterly! Let the enemy feel your pain by turning their's into agony!

Should you lay beaten and dying on the field, laugh with pride for even in death our enemies will fear us, leave them with a scar that will haunt them till the time of their retribution!" - Chaplain Valorus
