What's the population of Mobius usually? I think I read somewhere that private groups are limited to 20k players, in such a big universe that seems pretty lonely.

Less lonely than solo. 
And if you visit the Mobius website, you can team up with people. [yesnod]

There are now two Mobius groups. Mobius for Euro/Asia timezones and Mobius PvE for US timezone. They got too big for the servers to handle so had to be split.
And its ok, the popular systems are usually quite busy. Shinrarta especially usually has several players around.

The original Mobius group became the one for the EU time zones. The US group is called Mobius PvE.

It's populated enough that if in on of the popular systems or CG systems you're likely to run in to someone (which is mostly where you see people in open too). Met someone at alien wreck when I headed out maybe a week or two after it was found. Went to a tip off yesterday and found another player already there.
Wonder why private groups are limited to 20000 anyway. Console is limited to just 1000 but that's probably some microsoft/xbox live restriction.

Mobius is an interesting case, technically there's nothing preventing an infinitive group size, but when you reach a certain number where you basically are going.
Allow this guy, that guy, this guy, this guy, this guy, this guy, this one too, that one....
Becomes significantly more complicated and time consuming then 'allowed' with no checks as open is, that is I think why anyone working with databases will tell you that, many specific calls can quickly become slower then one 'get everything'
I'm making friends at the CG at a rate of one a night... It's cool to see where peeps are going for their Power Generators, Titanium and other things...
Not sure about Open these days as I don't do PvP, but when I switched to Mobius I saw far more commanders than I ever did in Open before finding out about Mobius.
It really comes into its own for the CG's as you know that the other commanders are of a similar mind (at the time, but that is what counts) so you are more likely to get chatting and have random wing requests to team up so you can play with, instead of against each other.

Do you not have a day job or something? I swear every time I scroll the forums I see 3 threads posted by you on the first page.
That's no way to treat a mod...You should find it within you to hate yourself less.
You deserve better! [yesnod]

Talking about totals or a 'generally online count' on a weekly rolling basis?

its a population of "most of my friends" ... so that counts for a lot.

I don't know ... I hate it if I greet somebody in my Corvette and they just disappear ... in Mobius I can talk to people.
