70 “guests” online?

[Eric H]

I’m on the forum at 6:30am EST. I’m scrolling down the screen looking for something new and notice that I’m the only member online. However, there are 70 “guests”! Who are these people? Just lurkers or something else!
If you’re a lurker I’d encourage you to join this group and be active.

Could bots be raising the guest numbers?

I'd bet it's mostly bots, farming info or whatever. There are also thousands of registered "members" who have never posted.

If you don't log in when you return to the site...you are counted as a 'guest'

Good point. That’s why we don’t post that we have the armed guards, pit bulls in the office and electrified pay stations and change machines. People who read this forum for nefarious reasons will never know how many criminals have lost life or limb trying to get a few hundred dollars.
