RCU hits record posts in forums and record listings in marketplace!
I just did a little checking up on our stats yesterday and we hit all time posting records in the forums and new ad listings in the marketplace. This is inclusive of all days since we opened the doors. With the recent move to faster hosting and the stabilization of our codebase finally things are hitting on all cylinders.
Stats for Monday January 19th, 2004
[ul][*] 4320 posts - all time record. (includes forum posts plus classified discussion posts to keep things on par with the "old" site where sale listings were posts too)[*] 327 ads placed in the marketplace[*] 223 signups[*] 296 offers on items for sale[*] 124 auction bids[*] 54 member feedback ratings entered
[/ul]
Despite all the naysayers who predicted the demise of RCU when we changed our colors, header and classifieds format RCU has proven that it is indeed here to stay. The marketplace was predicted to be headed for disaster by many who refused to learn something new which as it turns out is in fact better. Items sell faster than they ever did on the old RCU. Buyers can more easily find what they want and customize their marketplace to their personal preferences.
We will be continually improving the site, adding requested features, adding more content, more video, more reviews, more RC "celebrities", contests and other surprises which we hope you will find fun. This hobby is about having fun and it was always my hope that RCU could bring those who share the same passion together in one place to discuss it or perhaps do some trading.
I want to thank the loyal membership who stuck by RCU and had faith that we would get the speed issues and technical issues sorted out. Your patience & support through these tougher days is appreciated. Thanks to the moderators for helping to keep the site orderly and on track through the transition which was bumpy back in September.
2004 will be an exciting year and we will continue to strive to bring you the best in RC content and services.

Gotta love it!!! Now at one site, no names they tried for a week to get one more member so they could hit the 1000 mark and finally did do it.
