Wash your mouth out! There's no such thing as too much Monty Python.

There's a few hilarious skits, but I'd say there most certainly IS such a thing - it can get ultra tedious VERY fast indeed. Fawlty towers on the other hand... not QUITE so bad, but I find the "far too intellectual and pleased with oneself" in-jokes and super-super obscure, abstract nonsense to drain SO much of my mental energy when all I want is a SIMPLE LAUGH, I end up getting irritated and turning them off.

Simon:
I must admit I don't mind them but yes they do get a bit tedious. Fawlty Towers was quite good.

BravoV:
Another quarterly update, especially with the recent big events such as :

- Forum server upgrade with bigger RAM and miscellaneous forum fixes by gnif
- Coincidentally there is a thread Oscilloscope pong for 1 or 2 players that posted at Hackaday which generated thousand of guest views recently.


Brief summary (last data yesterday at 4th April 2017) :

* New posts and topics created looks like stable with low ripple.  :-DD
* Looks like starting at Feb this year, there is a significant increase in new forum members, not sure if its spammer account like in the past.  :-//
* Online members also starting to grow from Feb, and there is a spike recently, although not as big as in the past events.
* Page view is hitting a new record.  :clap:
Other interpretations is yours.

Maybe a simple result of scopemonth promotion and chatter starting its wind up in February. give-aways always attracts the lumpen masses.
