Yes @calatorilmiop.
I believe everything that is done on here adds to the growth. We see people posting the stats on a daily and weekly basis. Just showing up is adding one to the regular user list if he or she does anything. Commenting, upvoting, and posting is all logged. We are growing in each area on a weekly basis it seems. That does not happen unless people come on here and engage. The more that happens, the better off this place will be.
The size of the site in terms of pages, and what is on the page, grows. If I understand Google correctly, they love that.
