As of right at this moment, out of the current 124,847 members, how many are actually active and posts and how many actually log in?
Has anyone actually run the numbers?
Do accounts get deleted after so much time has passed of inactivity?

Nobody gets deleted (unless requested), afaik.

Currently: 124000 members, 5 active.

Compare that to Honda-Tech, 655000 members, 102 active
Compare that to my local car forum, Roclife.org, 2200 members, 10 active....

This place is like a retirement community, you know it is full of ppl but only 10 or so come out of the house to complain...

What is considered "active"?

Logged in within the last 24 hours I believe.

There's like 5 active threads on RL... mostly just chatter and OT stuff. The occasional post about a build. The most popular thread is the one where everyone complains lol

I second this.

I hate to see the direction the site has gone but I believe it’s just forums in general. There are still some active forums but most have been replaced by Facebook groups or other social media.

That being said, I don’t think we would be able to replicate the community we’ve had here on a Facebook group. Usernames, avatars, signatures etc are all part of it imo.

f**kin way she goes I guess.

Exactly. I'm in a bunch of facebook car groups and they all suck. No good way to search, mostly bashing and bullshit, etc.

If you drive a base model RSX you basically can't post in the RSX group without getting s**t on lol

That's what makes forums so much more attractive to me, the community is more there with a forum than the shitty FB groups.
Also, with forums, searching archived topics is much easier, making it more efficient to find answers..
