Multiple mysterious guests.

When I look to see who is online, it says that there are guests. But who are the guests? There are no moderators and only one administrator. So who are they?

People not logged in.

Or people who haven't joined the forum. I used to be one of those Myself.

Maybe you think you're pretty smart, but people who haven't joined the forum are people not logged in.

Shake it

I wouldn't necessarily jump to that conclusion. Some people's browsers don't save their login state; maybe some of those people don't feel like re-logging in every time they come to the forum.

I'm not quite sure what you mean Theo, but as far as I can see, someone who has not joined the forum, (which means not registered) has no username and password, so he/she is not even able to log in.

TheoX is right. If your browser doesn't save cookies, the "Log-in automatically" option does not work. You can be registered but logged out.

That's true, but it doesn't mean that what I said is not true.

Ummm... I was actually taking the "People who aren't logged in" literally.

I mean, I thought he meant people who are members but aren't logged in. I didn't think that "People who aren't logged in" would have the same meaning. So, I actually DON'T think I'm really smart. In fact, now I feel stupid.

I'm sorry for making you feel stupid. I was a bit irritated by two posts after each other, and then another one, so I reacted a bit, how shall I say it, not quite friendly. please forget it.
