Nexus reaches 750,000 registered members
The recent launch of FO3Nexus helped to more than douple the daily registration numbers from 800 new members a day up to 1800 new members registering each and every day and thus speed up the march to this latest milestone. The next one is a biggy, the big one million!
Sadly I missed the actual milestone date because I was busy sorting out all the server move issues, that are now resolved, so it's a nice "trophy" to top off a successful and worthwhile server move. Thanks everybody.

That is the greatest thing about Bethesda, they rely almost entirely on their reputation to sell their games. Unlike other developers they do not run sweeping ad campaigns to build hype they simply state their plans and we the fans hype the hell out of it for them. They are a company founded and run by gamers like us and although we do not actually carry them (we only account for about 20%), If we were not here they would not be where they are today because when the other 80% logs on to the WWW and hunts up Bethesda or any of their games WE, The Bethesda Game Modding Community are what they see. I have no doubt in my mind that The Nexus is largely responsible for the enormous growth in the last two years with lots of console>PC converts. Our Community is nothing short of miraculous and to be without the hands down best file host in the world would be...I can not say it but think about it, no one else even comes close. You would think that somebody would have copied the format by now.
Que sera sera , no body ever said the world was full of geniuses. Thanks again Robin.
Kudos to the whole site (hits giant Kudos button)!!!!

I'm not sure I was entirely right. Rather I think that the forums are stagnating, with the same few people posting. Of course, having a lot of people en the forums can ruin them, by destroying the feeling of knowing everyone. A few other forums I've been on are too large, and there are a cliques that are generally unfreindly and intimidating, and everyone else don't know eachother online. But, it would be nice if there were a few new faces. Our lingual duels in the lounge can be a bit boring after a while.
Hope they don't release a stinker in the future to "cash in" on their brand. Most companies do that.
I couldn't have said it better myself. Kudos dogstar1.
The same goes for all the moderators and all those involved in keeping this site running.
I final shout goes to all the top class modders this site has either drawn in or influenced or encouraged. You are a truly awe inspiring group. Thank you one and all.
I can see it now, an aging Robin Scott tells his wife, I'll be down to dinner in a minute dear, I just have to make sure the 50+ TB of data on the Nexus Network is backed up and available to all of it's 30 million members. Oh and I really need to post that article I wrote on the pros and cons of Bethesda's upcoming full featured CS which is being released for their Star Trek open universe RPG
