There's actually 8 members here now, though only 5 are listed, and 877 non-posting guests. This is freaky. I think I'll make it 7 members. FAST.

Freaky in what sense, Pam? Expand your sense of shock or outrage a little, I haven't grasped it yet.

Seemed like an observation to me.:thinking:

Suppose it could have gone into a random thoughts thread. But we have threads about the weather and what you are eating and what pleased you or angered you.... those could go the same way, IMO.

I'm curious as to why this one in particular has caught your bemused eye... what do you think it is about? Perhaps you should start a thread on your bemusement as this one could end up closed if we stray too much off topic.

It was "This is freaky" that caught my eye, emphasized by the five question marks in the thread title. I have absolutely no idea why those figures are in any way freakish as opposed to commonplace. So I said I was bemused and asked for an explanation, not that anybody's offered one yet.

It depends on several factors.

The time between their arrival and dropping off the count is, approximately, a multiplier. If a site's set to drop a guest from the count after one hour then it'll show roughly a tenth of the "number of guests" of an equivalent site set to drop a guest from the count after ten hours.

An increased rate of message turnover, and an increased proportion of links into the site from elsewhere on the Internet, will drive up the rate of spider crawling. Spiders are counted as guests.

The larger the post count and the more world-relevant the posts on site, the more search engine referrals there will be. People arriving from searches are counted as guests unless they register and log in.

Some sites bigger than ForumGarden have a shorter timeout on the guest count and might consequently show a lower figure. Some don't. linuxquestions.org for example currently shows 49 members and 1455 guests.

What aspect of the ForumGarden count is freaky?

perhaps guests are like members and forget to log off.

they're still using the site.

you still see members names when they haven't logged off.

mods rarely log off, mods never log off on 2 forums I am on, it makes the forum look busy for guests and new people.:yh_wink

I asked a simple question Spot.

Is the 1 sample you supply indicative of what you see at the majority of other forums you visit? Because i can tell you that it is not indicative of the numbers I saw at the other sites I visited to check earlier today - one of which was listing you as currently on line. 11 to14 - 4 to 8, were a couple - as I recall.

The site you refer to, for example, has a five minute timeout compared to ForumGarden's four hours, a hundredth of the message base and quite possibly fewer world-relevant posts though that might change in the future.

Where's the freakiness?

Well, of the five sites I visited for comparison purposes, this site had the most skewed user to guest ratio. Which made it the one with irregular or unusual site stats. aka..... freaky

Everyone's gone to the pub! It's just me now and all those thousands of creepie crawlie spiders. One thousand and fifteen right now, to be exact (8119 legs - I squished one by accident). They're evidently breeding ... If Forum Garden's Resident Expert (FGRE) says this is not freaky, who are we to question his experiential sagacity???? Or for that matter FGRE's rather unseemly interest in one's personal punctuational peculiarities?????? !!!!

(Pam brushes off a few cobwebs, removes a tarantula from her hair, smacks a pair of impassioned blackwidows out of her way, squelches on a bunch of funnelwebs and exits, stage left, as the vuvuzela orchestra plays 'The Party's Over'...)

This new system's very clunky isn't it? I can never locate the reply text box. Guess it's set up for use mainly with iPhones now.

Anyway, yes, Nomad - I also found that curious. And his persistence even curiouser. Must be a very quiet weekend.

Hmmm. By my calculations 139 of those voyeurs are in church or at the beach. 877 less 738 . . .etc. I excel at math and deduction, you know. :wah:

Oh wait, if they're Australian voyeurs they wouldn't be in church nor at the beach because it's a wintery Monday there, right? Therefore my deductive powers tell me THEY must be Voyeurs of the Western Hemisphere. I can see this being made into a best-selling book and then a mini-series or possibly an award-winning movie.

That's a very good point, probably. This is indeed a stupid thread, and the remark you quoted is also undeniably extremely stupid. But the "most stupid"?? :-3 ... I suppose you must be a relative newcomer to cyberspace. ...:thinking: though "most stupid" is kinda neat in its own way. Sorry, those other ForumGardeners, who've striven so hard for so long for this prestigious title - to have it wrested from you and awarded by a newbie who likes clean sheets to undeserving little moi!! Who merely ran out of things to say of suitable gravitas and so waffled on meaninglessly.

I apologise to all our esteemed Members, Guests, hidden members, arachnoids, aliens and Spot. Read on in good health!

And Zappy, the amoebas are actually bullet holes. Fitting, doncha think, probably.
