:wah: Hahaha somehow I think Bob is more likely than the other two, but you never know I guess!!

Just a quick thought. We would anyone want to join FG, (such as our latest member,) and yet we never hear from them?? :-2

Just out of curiosity...does that number include inactive members..you know the ones who join never to be seen again?

I just think of a couple of personal incidents....I helped Kim sign up, but after a couple of days she felt she was not interested and did not return. Also, in exploring the member list once, I found that I, myself, had joined months before coming on in May...and for some reason never came back. Then, having apparently forgotten that I had already joined, I came back in May and joined again..the rest being history.

Is there a way to weed out the usernames of members who have never posted? Or have not posted since, maybe, thier first day? OK, I am not speaking of members such as Wolverine or FarRider who are infrequent visitors, so do not worry there. Am I making sense here?

All forums have this same issue. . . one forum I am in has (get this) 111,840 members! And how many of those have more than 5 or 10 posts? I am not sure, but I certainly don't have the time to sit here and count them all that's for sure!

The admin probably keep those randoms on the list. It's a numbers game people! :p

110-120 new members a day on that forum, about 280ish active members a day.... lotsa padding....
