Got some fresh numbers from Bugsy (myLotBugs) in a PM this morning. I had been relying on data from May of last year regarding how many members we had (previous and recent) and I got a much better overview of the site today from him.
To break things down a bit, since August 1st 2015 myLot has sent out 2,695 payments to users that have achieved the minimum needed for cashout.
796 members have reached cashout at least once.
New users (including spam users that have been banned) is 40,292
New users that have at least 1 activity is 5,584 (either a discussion, response, or comment)
Number of (existing) discussions created is 161,092 (actual number is closer to 188,500 but many have been deleted)
Those discussions have received 1,456,619 responses and 2,462,463 comments.
There have been 33,057 links shared.
'Likes' given total 5,395,222
Total 'suggestions' is 267,781
Members have made 17,760 'reports' (I may have made 17,700 of those
)
There have been 129,734 images shared in discussions, responses and comments
Number of tags is 53,911(relatively low...not sure about this)
This is what has happened in the past 17 1/2 months here for anyone that is curious.

Bugsy and I both love stats. Especially when you can't draw any really meaningful conclusions from the numbers presented (such as how much myLot is REALLY earning as a company from the site [my own guess is - not a great deal and certainly not a living wage]).

Would knowing how much myLot is making be of any purpose to the users?
Surely, whatever the amount, some would think that they should share more with us Lotters while others, for sure if the figure was low, would not believe it and either way it could cause friction?

Vey interesting and thank you for sharing.
I am curious to know of those 17,760 reports, how many were actually implemented 
It is good to know that there are many who are reporting and not just a handful of people that some Lotters seem to believe.

It's always good to have something 'official' to refer people to

Yeah, but how many people do you see here constantly doing stuff every day? Most people are in/out every once in a while or they post a few times and leave

@JolietJake somewhere else you wrote 'posed' instead of 'posted' - but it's all good... just thought I'd let you know seeing you like to edit typo when you see it...

@JolietJake Better late than never. And still no-one has figured out the rationale behind the Block feature (i have rehashed my latest a bit, and invoked a call to Admin for possible clarification...)

This can now be linked to whenever all those 'How many members?', 'Does it actually pay?', etc questions come up. Of course there will always be those who demand financial stats as well - and they can just carry on demanding....

Good information. Mylot is doing good since a long time. I really liked it. I tried to be in touch with the site even when I am out of station. But there was some problem with the network on my mobile.
