	| Ok then, i will explain to you people what a "flood" is. A "flood" is when a forum or other type of online community has a large surge in the amount of people participating in the discussions.  Usually triggered by a mojor event, like the beta test, the number of members jumped from about 1500 to over 4000 in a few days.  That was a big "flood" at the time because the number of people nearly tripled.  There where newbs going all over the place.  So it was like a "flood" of newbs.  Now, since WW released these mod tools, the number of people is about 15000.  I have only seen one person on this mod forum whos member number is below 1500, other than me. That is what I mean by a "flood". |

	| ok then now that you explained what you meant by flood, yeah there is a big one... but I don't think the actual posts have picked up too too much since people started modding with the c130drop file and stuff |

	| i thought you meant flood as in alot of topics coming in. Not users. Hmmm... capatalizing that N made it seems weird. a cap N seems very... mean. anyways, i thought you meant topic flood. |

	| Yes the posts have picked up.....  Before there wasn't even any mod forum and now there are thousands of posts, that is a "pick up" if you aks me. |

	| yeah, I kinda joined up in the community after the mod forum was created... but then again I joined up as soon as I heard about renegade which was after it was released (which was about the time the multiplayer demo came out I think)(yeah it's true, I haven't been a huge C&C fan like a lot of you)  then I tried out the multiplayer demo and ordered renegade that weekend |
