the last thread may have been incorrect because it did not include the beginning of the forums, with data from early 2008 too
https://twitter.com/catzilla_again/status/695433512405479432
-0.0205x^2 + 88.897x - 6135.3
the trendline seems to be heavily skewed by summer OT (the peaks in the graph) so we can be sure this time that roblox will be a ghost town by october 2019

"didnt the roblox forums start in 07/06? because if it did, then that's 12 years the forums has been running" Yes, but I belive the first replyable thread was in 08

"didnt the roblox forums start in 07/06?"
yes but either it was incrediby slow or it didn't have the same PostID system we use now do i can't find it
the oldest post i went to was somewhat below 500,000 in february 2008 which isn't a lot of posts right
we get that many posts now in a week or so

I am slightly amused by the fact that no one is questioning why you are doing this needless math. So Im going to ask myself. What is your purpose behind this?

I don't understand how you came up with those results, OP. Explain to us how you did it.

"I don't understand how you came up with those results, OP. Explain to us how you did it."
i have a big spreadsheet full of post id's and dates going by every million post ids so i graphed it and then i noticed that the roblox forums peaked in 2013 and have been declining since so i put a trendline on it then i found the zeros and that zero was between october 20th and 21st in 2019
the r value is not high enough to call this reliable but i'd have to write a really wacky equation to get an accurate graph
maybe like... ax^2 + bx + c + dsin(2pi(x-44)/365) to represent the difference between summer and winter ot, there isn't an excel trendline for that BUT i can probably write a program to calculate it which i can do if i have the time
i'm a madman!

This doesn't necessarily mean that the forums will be dead at all. If the website is still up, then so will the forums. And as long as there is a forum, there are forumers to supply it.

| Roblox is getting more and more players everyday. So by 2019 I would estimate about that their will be around 50,000,000 active accounts. That being said more and more people could start using the forums. |

| Well OT will be dead on the 27th. So OP was technically right. Also I deserve all credit and glory for bumping this thread. |
