^ Well, who knows? It may not have been an error - maybe there really were that many Randall fans at the time! XD

Sadly, though, a lot of the people on this board don't show up these days... I wonder what's happened. I mean, when school starts up again, I'm definitely going to be busier than I am now, but I'll still drop by and visit from time to time - or is it that people here are either in college or are working? To rephrase that question: what exactly are the demographics of the board's members? Are most of us high school students (like I am), college students, or working?
I know for sure that Pitbulllady's working. I'm guessing that LGBB is a high school senior (or the equivalent), and that Sean is a college student... was I right? XD

I'm a school teacher by profession, and we've still got a couple more weeks left before returning to the slave shack, uh, I mean WORK. Anytime you see a whole bunch of "members" showing up, most are "bots", from Google and other searchengines, or from spammers trying unsuccessfully to post here. We have, though, had many more members in the past. Most eventually lose interest in Randall and move on to other fandoms. Some of us are just a bit more loyal than that. pitbulllady |

Not in Randall, per se, but unfortunately there is only so much you can talk about in regards to Randall. It's just the way it happens. And then we get someone new, like you, and conversation starts flowing again! I'm between high school and university. It's called Sixth Form here, but I don't know what that could be defined as anywhere else. |

LG has a point about the moving on thing. Perhaps the key issue with loss of members. But also a good point with new, true, arrivals ^_^
Hahahaha ^0^ I might as well be a college student, but I have a delicate mind that I highly dislike seducing with homework and projects that are suppose to impress upon one's opinions ^_^

Well, well - quite an interesting group here. XD
LG, I'm not too sure about the 'Sixth Form' thing either - I'm not very familiar with the British education system, although Singapore does follow it. All I know are the examinations - GCSE, O-levels, A-levels, etc.
Hmmm... Sean, what do you mean by "I might as well be a college student"? I find that sort of interesting.

Aren't we? ^_^
Well...*folds arms* Do to some things I'm not so good at recalling some memories. I mean trying to recall mathamatic equations and wondering about what part in history something happened that was written by somebody else is quite a hassle to me.
Though that aside, I am quite intelligent normally. I mean take here. Don't like to toot my own horn as it were, but I've made many breakthroughs for Ran and have defended him on several occassions. The later recquired great insight and stone facts to convince bashers and mis-understanders.
I prefer mostly free-thinking learning. I mean when your in school your told to do something. Sure, it's good to have direction and know what to do, but sometimes you want to be more creative and not restricted.
So what I meant is that, I might not have the money or the memory-recall of some college students, but I do have the talent and knowhow ^_^

^ Ah... I see...
Yes, it does get quite annoying when you're ALWAYS being ordered about to "do this" and "do that" when you actually had a better idea yourself. I don't know which college I'll end up going to, but I sure hope it'll be one that allows for some creative-ish learning.

Well pretty much ^_^
Yeah...I mean, if a dictatorship denies a new idea, it has no chance to improve.
I hear that ^0^

Yeah, to be fair though the rules are set up to play it safe. Which, while causing some problems, stops a lot of bad ones from sprouting up because someone didn't think things through.

^ True, true... more often than not, my school homework mainly consists of "busy work" and doesn't really allow too much space for creative thinking. I'd have that changed if it was up to me to redevelop the curriculum.
Back to our original subject now: how many Randall fans do you estimate there are, worldwide? Kind of random, but I think it might be interesting to see what our members come up with...

Doesn't stop jerks from squeezing out right answers and get awards they didn't earn -_-
OH it really depends on a variety of issues...fans who kno he's not the villain, fans who like him BECAUSE he's, to them, the villain, or those who just think he's hot tah ^0^ Guess it just varies.
