Hi All,
Recently one of my .NET colleague asked me about total number of users registered in SCN community. I tried to find but couldnot get it.
So, kindly help me to find these sort of numerical data in the SCN community/Space/Sub-space.
Regards
Saurabh

Hi all,
Because of SAP data privacy guidelines and European privacy laws we no longer report total number of members. And aligned with some of the comments listed here, many "registrants" signed up, but never took any action.
What we now report is unique monthly visitors, of which there are about 2 million per month. This includes those who sign in and those who do not.
We need to update wikipedia.

For even a better number the number of active contributors(as defined by SAP) on SCN on the old platform was 2000 out of two million accounts. That's probably not a number I would want to share regardless of data privacy laws.
Take care,
Stephen

Active contributors under the old system was 250 points in twelve month period. I didn't realize that active contributor measure has been lowered to next to nothing. Can you share an equivalent mesaure how many people have hit 125 points in the last year?
That's more apple to apple comparison. I'm using 125 as since the points reduced for blogging contributions 40 vs 10 initial would make a difference in overall contribution totals.
Take care,
Stephen
Saurabh,
How does it matter?
Does SCN benefit if some one registers and does nothing? Does this type of member benefit? Do other members benefit from this type of member joining / registering?
This no. is similar to the no. of friends in Facebook or if i may dare, the no. of followers in SCN.
It might be same as how many SAP books one has bought but never read.
It is not registration but engagement that matters...actively giving and taking! That can be done as a member of SCN or non-member.

Hi - There are some figures quoted in the Wikipedia article about SCN: SAP Community Network - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jurgen,
about Hari and how much he still could follow
Ha ha...witty, creative co-relation of this topic with Hari's exceptional action/strategy!
Added: if one wants to be famous...then this is a tried and tested strategy. He is still remembers and talked about.

Tampering with the URL parameters, it seems we have just under 833K registered users as of right now (you might have to increase the start-count if you come here later, was 832885 when this was posted):

MoazzaM,
Liked the way you put it...new determination
Do you suspect someone / some case?
Since ages there have been some individuals whose actions do not seem understandable to the larger society but some of these individuals have later been recognized and admired for their "eccentricity" and genius!
new determination for following every possible SCN user
Hi TW
There is some user who has strange habit of rating every question in SD forum. I saw a lot of time that user has asked question and within 10 minutes some user rated that one or two star silently and Jelena Perfiljeva is witness to this. We can't identify the user who is rating so it is hard to say who it is but I have some suspects in my mind which I can't share here
Thank$
It's not a moderator and I believe the SD moderators already know who that person is. I'm still not sure though what posessed that person to do this and what they were trying to achieve. Very weird.
As for the member count - perhaps the registered members would be more accurate figure. I'm probably double-counted among those 2+ mil. when I browse SCN in Firefox without signing in (for better performance and no annoying ads).
Hi
May be Lakshmipathi G or Jyoti Prakash could comment on this.
I never saw any add on SCN with or without logging in. Is there any adds in SCN?
