Sponsor |  Thlayli | Feb 8, 11:11am | I hid post 37 because it had very little bearing on this topic and was 3000 characters of mostly quoted text.
I wish I knew how many people actually use SUE. I wonder if Nexus76 knows. |

Sponsor | | Thlayli | Feb 8, 1:17pm | | That's the number of people registered, not the real current number of users. I assume thousands of those people never use it anymore. I'm on that list, I never posted any SUE content to my blog, and uninstalled the script over a year ago. |

| | ben76213 | Feb 8, 1:25pm | I see. You are talking about how many users are actually using it.. That is a difficult question to answer and it would take one volunteer who have a couple of days and weeks to spend on looking up thousands of people. Easy.. The hard part is of course to find someone who would help :PPP
I can give a guess of 200, considiring the project was abandoned and many people probably did the same thing. |

Sponsor | | Thlayli | Feb 8, 1:43pm | | Yeah, I think that's a good guess. I don't see the buttons on very many pages. |

Sponsor | | AlternaDad | Feb 8, 9:11pm | | Why was the script so openly hated by so many people? I only ask because I have seen people get pissed off at the very mention of SUE. I always thought it was pretty kick ass. |

|  patrickjluke | Feb 8, 9:34pm | | My experience with SUE was that on those pages where people had it, they took a millennium to load. I'm on dialup. |

Sponsor | | Orfie | Feb 8, 9:37pm | | Yeah, they were graphic-heavy, but used in the right context were awesome. |
|
|
Sponsor | | ericthehamster | Feb 8, 11:35pm | | Yes, that was my experience too, and why I finally uninstalled. Some of the graphics also made the pages hard to read. |

Sponsor | | Thlayli | Feb 10, 9:44am | | 46: People equated the addition of embedded media with a move towards MySpace. In some ways, that was correct. A lot of the people who used it were--perhaps are--still supporters of fully HTML/CSS-ready blogs on SU. I think the decision to allow CSS styles to slip into our blogs was intentional, and a result of that kind of pressure. It's typical of SU to make it somewhat awkward, so as to foster a "power user only" atmosphere. The devs have always stressed that blogs are secondary to the stumble button and review system. |
