I think on the first one we had almost 10,000 pages. That might have been the second, I don't remember.

But seriously. If ya'll think it's weird now, you should have been there for the first few versions of this thing. Mijzelffan knows what I mean.

Well, would you say it was better or worse back then? Then again, a lot of things were pretty different. It's not really all that long ago either, just ~3 years? Maybe less.

I think on the first one we had almost 10,000 pages. That might have been the second, I don't remember.

Also, the first one was merged with the one million posts thread. Holy shit, that was spamming.

Also, haha, I have 5 more posts in the first than you!

Nah, it was just celebrating that the forums had a grand total of one million posts. Quite a lot of the posts were just lame awesome puns that had something with post, or just saying that you posted.

I wonder if Bulbagarden members can be categorized.

You know, you got the people here. Then, there's the Fun and Gamers. They are often slightly interchangeable with the people here. Then, you got the anime guys. I mean, I lurked somewhat there to get some news on the upcoming tournament (relevant for gen VI, actually), and quite frankly I've never seen many of those members, even if they have thousands of posts. Then, there's the people in the video games section (current event, as well). And of course, the bloggers.

That's what I identify as main groups in any case.

Actually, I'm not too sure. As far as I've seen, there's not much activity in most of the groups, the activity took a hit when the part at the bottom was removed, and didn't fully recover when it came back. I know there's some groups with activity, but if this was before they removed it, then I'd surely list them as a main group. Now, I'd say they're more a niche. A niche of what, I can't really say.

Idk, I thought it was better. We had that solid group of 15-20 regular posters, then the regulars started switching up every few months until now, when we only have about 4 or 5 of the originals left. But, that's just me not being around long enough to know the new people. Not like I hate them, haha.

AND FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF (honestly though, I don't even remember how much I posted in the old threads)

There's four types of members.

There is the Typical Pokemon Fan, who'll post mostly about Pokemon. That can be in threads, groups or blogs.
Then there is the BMGF Regulars, those that mostly post in Out the Box or a combination of different sub forums. Typically been here for long and have a 1000+ post count.
The Artistic Types post in the Lit/Art place, that's self explanatory.
And then there is the Non Pokemon Fan, who mostly post anywhere but the Pokemon sections.

Any of the groups except the first can cross over with the Non Pokemon Fan. A good amount of the Typical Pokemon Fan will cross over with the Artistic Type.

I think that sums it up. I'd say if there has to be a fifth group, then it'd be Spambots.
