[img]https://i.imgur.com/fndvijT.png[/img] Well, it's 100,004 members as of writing. It's too bad I couldn't get the exact number, but this is a momentous occasion! It's the first flight to ever hit 100,000 members! In case you're wondering, here's the populations of the other flights right now: Arcane: 92,082 Plague: 74,632 Wind: 63,314 Nature: 61,999 Lightning: 61,187 Ice: 57,640 Light: 55,690 Water: 41,769 Fire: 36,582 Earth: 20,776 It's amazing to see how much Flight Rising has grown--I remember when Earth had less than 10,000! And it can only get bigger from here [emoji=nocturne winking size=1]

[/quote] same, especially because everyone knows they're the best at dom I guess if everyone who wanted dominance joined that flight then they'd stop getting dominance as often, but still I didn't know they were THAT low! I'm surprised by all of these actually tbh haha

theres such a big gap between wind and plague, wow. and the difference between nature and lightning is practically slim to none!

Wow, impressive! :D Congrats!

(It seems that our flight is only getting smaller as years pass XD And I remember that Wind used to be the largest one at some point...)

665,675 members in all! That's actually pretty sizeable.
What do all of you guys think drives the attractiveness of various Flights? I remember I picked Arcane because I liked the concept of a magical, erudite Flight... I think. I'm not quite sure.

It feels a little strange to be solidly middle-tier in terms of flight population— there's five of us less than 10,000 away in 50-60. But cool! It's fascinating to see how things change.

The traditional elements (minus Wind) are the smallest flights, because why join Fire when you can join something unique like Plague, Arcane, or Shadow? Now, keep in mind the minimum age to join Flight Rising is 13. A lot of people that age tend to go towards the more "cool" options. Shadow in particular has "edgelord" associations for being the flight centered around darkness. I'm not saying that everyone joined the more popular flights for that reason, but it's certainly a factor.

I figured as such. Especially Earth - I can understand how that Flight's size is related to how a lot of people might see it as a 'boring' element. However, it has contributed probably a great deal to Earth becoming a Dom-focused Flight, and I imagine a lot of Earth's size could be from people moving there to contribute to and/or take advantage of that.
