A month or so ago I came across the interesting fact that it is impossible to delete one's own account on the Thai Visa forum (you basically have to get banned to inactivate your account).

This piqued my curiosity about some statistics:

1. How many Thai Visa members are "on the rolls" representing all those accounts which will never be deleted, presumably? I noticed the online member list shows 7,124, but not sure if that represents all of TV's accounts/members.

2. How many Thai Visa members are "active" members? I guess by "active" maybe those who post at least monthly?

Any statistics available (unless they are closely-guarded corporate secrets)? I would think potential advertisers/sponsors would be interested in this sort of information.

Not many...the statistics are there for the advertisers.

Just me.

We have around 50,000 uniques visitors per day to thaivisa. I will dig up some Analytics data for you guys regarding number of active members.

This turned out to be kind of a dead thread, George. If I'm the only one interested, don't waste your time--but thanks anyway!

I would be interested to know if there is a why reason you cannot delete your account.

Of course it would be impossible to delete your posts as it would disrupt existing threads.

But wonder why a person cannot delete their account?

The numbers...its all about the numbers....regardless of if they add up or not.

I try to keep active by jogging from pub to pub.

George why would members request to be suspended, isnt it easier to just not come back?

ps, nice to see you getting involved in a thread George!...stick around, it usually gets interesting!

Your size is not available.

The members with the most posts, are the least active.

Some have actually transformed into potatoes.

A suspension stops you from logging in, sets your PM to off, and removes you from forum notifications and newsletter subscription. It is reversible though as members do change their minds

I thought you wore glasses?

When a potential advertiser/sponsor enquires about the possible audience his good hard earned dollars could get him....is that potential advertiser/sponsor given the total membership number, or the number of not banned member ?

Just askin.

Advertisers either pays per click (CPC), per 1,000 banner views (CPM), per month (sponsorship) or revenue sharing.

Number of registered members is a factor for advertisers, albeit not very important.
