der Berliner 3,815 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 As a general rule of thumb the figures on the various Gers forums for number of members can be divided by approximately 10 and you will get a figure which isn't a million miles away from the number of active forum members. In other words, it's in the region of about 10%, so in the case of FF a figure of 7k would be FAR more accurate than 70k. Of course, that number varies still, as it would mean that Gersnet has some 330 active members. At a rough guess, it's more like 50 to 100. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,665 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Of course, that number varies still, as it would mean that Gersnet has some 330 active members. At a rough guess, it's more like 50 to 100. We have a core of around 100 members logging in daily from a larger number of interested readers. Obviously, not everyone posts and neither do all our visitors log in or register. Similarly, not every member will log in every day so there will be more than 100 active members but not as many as 10% for sure. All in all, I'm very happy with the traffic and demographic on this forum. We're small enough to make everyone's opinion relevant and worthy of discussion. But also large enough to keep the juices flowing throughout each day's debates. As an aside, I'd also say our traffic has increased in recent years while I'd say FF for example has noticeably slowed down. That's probably down to the social media influence and I'm pleased to see us go against the grain there. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangersitis 0 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Laxey took about a third of the shares in the recent issue and now have about 16% of the voting rights. Ashley confirmed as having his percentage reduced through dilution. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zappa 0 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 With Laxey having now increased their holding to 16.32%, that's a fairly large slice of the company now owned by them or whoever they represent. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

forlanssister 3,114 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 tightening their grip on their investment will be hard to shift them . They've just drastically lowered their average price per share probably making it easier for them to be shifted in the medium term. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
