As more people moved to this utopian LEGO society, more infrastructure was
necessary to support them - wider roads, new subdivisions, more
regulations and of course law enforcement (the sheriff can’t cover all of
the expanded territory by himself now, can he?).

This is often claimed, but I’m not sure if there’s evidence to support
it... it seems to me that there are less posts and posters than there were
two years ago. Perhaps one of the Admins could provide some statistics to
support the alleged growth?

(Richie’s crude analysis snipped)
I wonder how much of the drop in traffic here is due to the theme-specific
boards like FBTB, classic-castle, classic-space, and bzpower siphoning
posters away from here? I suspect that the influence of these other sites
cannot be discounted.

Indeed.
However, you may be missing the point of my request. I’m not saying that
lugnet needs to increase its posting numbers, or active posters, I’m
questioning the ‘growth’ which is claimed to require more zealous
Administration.
Is there evidence for such growth? I think not, but if it’s there, it would
be good for the Admins to share.
Cheers

Just a few references below. Keep in mind that growth doesn’t necessarily
translate to increased traffic or bandwidth usage. It also means the number of
newsgroups required to support the needs and desires of the community.
