Earlier tonight I noticed for the first time since I have been a member that the members online numbers were higher than guests online.Members vs guests online numbers were, Members 28, Guests 22. It is good to have more members online than guests, however guests are how we gain members so I am glad to have every guest we can get. Thanks members for helping balance the numbers.

I just wonder how many of the guests are members not logged in? I sometimes check the site from other computers or get logged out from my own.

Good point Wayne. I also do that sometimes.

My company frowns on us logging into message boards from our network so several times each day I appear as a guest.

How many were members ? Usually when the numbers get that high there are an extremely large number of visitors.

My Elves don't log in. I have talked about this with them, but it seems to be a re-occurring problem. I am thinking of reducing their Natural Light allowance, as I think it might be detrimental :icon_puk e

Another thing to consider is that many of those "guest" are really spiders. When Yahoo crawls our site, they use many tasks at the same time. One of these days, I will change the displys to show members, spiders and guests.

Once in a while i looked at some of the guest and they are from all over the country and a few from other countries. There also the spammers looking for a way in.

From time to time I've recommended this site to people who would not qualify to join, but I thought they might benefit from simply perusing the posts here. Good info is invaluable!!!!!
