    [/quote]The smaller the number,the higher your popularity.  Number 1 being the highest,means there are over 12,000 members more popular than you. But, as statistics on here still include thousands of members that have not signed in for many years, no number can ever be a true representation ofactive members.

    Your popularity grows as people visit your profile page. The more hits, the lower your popularity number. With all the recent updates, this is one thing that may eventually be dropped, but its fun knowing people are seeing your profile.

    My activity on TN has been pretty steady, and for a long time I was just keeping pace with the crowd at about 2000. When TS was started, I jumped quickly to about 1600 and have stayed there since - I assume because 400 of the 2000 people more popular, lower-numbered than me moved their activity to the other site. An interesting statistic.

    In other words - quantity not quality counts ...
    Blank and private profiles collect popularity points just as easily as the carefully completed ones.
    By the time you feel the frustration of having opened yet another blank/private profile - the owners popularity is up.
    But judging from the discussions in groups and forums - blank and private profiles are not popular at all ... hmmm
    Same goes for the unpopular friend collector crowd if collecting friends also generates popularity points ...
    Personally I don't care - for me TN is not a popularity contest but a place where I can meet like-minded people.
