So after the influx and exodus yesterday I'd be interested to know about the real Phuks...

How many regular users are there?

Now for reals, you can check /s/PhukStats, where I try to post monthly stats of the sites that include number of active users.

We're you guys happy to see all the incoming traffic or not?

I always like some change of routine, it was fun.

The site is smooth. Like butter. Whoever did the coding did a great job

Well thanks! There is still a lot to improve though.

I thought the captcha shit goes away at level 4.

It's always been level 5

From the stats link

zero new subs since the last stats post

You're going to have a lot of new subs this month.

Who's the ISP/hosting provider you guys use?

You going to have additional costs because of the traffic?

Vultr. we didnt have to spin up any additional help, still running at $35/month - https://kek.gg/i/5-BFj.png

Vultr. We won't have any additional costs, yet.

That's difficult to know accurately, but I'd estimate about a dozen 'high level', a couple score of occasional, and I could only guess about lurkers.
They post the monthly stats

Can't speak for everyone, but I doubt anyone was opposed. I was happy. A little worried at the start, but all went well.

Since we barely track user activity, our active user counter only counts users who have voted or posted something, so even I don't know how many lurkers we have

if misc.get_user_level(current_user.uid)[0] <= 4:

from our source

damn it's been a while since we messed with that. It's after 4, not 4, so level 5.

Let me check something and get back to you. brb

[–] chmod [OP] 3 points (+3|-0)

If it's 5 then leave it. Keeps away the spammers.

[–] pembo210 0 points (+0|-0)

yeah, i was just going through it, it's supposed to be 250 points or being at level 5.

I blew it. I've been telling people level four for a day now.. well if everyone wants to change it, we'll toss it up for a discussion post, but seeing how you're the first to call it out, I dont think anyone noticed. Thanks for candor. We're thinking about an announcement with all the recent stat numbers and all these little details. If you can think of anything you noticed that might need to be mentioned, let me know

IMO leave it.

Is there a time algorithm that drops posts off as they age? Sorry, I'm mobile. Will look at code soon.

What are the points for the first 10 levels?

[–] pembo210 1 points (+1|-0)

it's squareroot(XP/10)

level 2 is (2x2x10) = 40 points

3 is (3x3x10) = ~~60 points~~ (edit: 90 points)

4 is (4x4x10) = 160 points and so on

It really is smooth. I don't know how much extra load it is under, but there hasn't been a single stutter for me.

[–] pembo210 1 points (+1|-0)

lets just say, a lot.. here's the db for the last week - https://kek.gg/i/67bCny.png

I can get you caught up on our memes and in-jokes if you'd like.

I'm sticking around as well. Poor Phuks have already had to deal with my drunk ass going on about dogs in IRC. Super chill community and the admins seem to be currently accessible.

So after the influx and exodus yesterday I'd be interested to know about the real Phuks...
