When i logged on this morning their were 8 members online and 434 guests.

Surely this cannot be correct, and if it is, why don't they just join?

Yes, I let Johan know about this when I noticed 165 last night. Apparently it is due to some abnormality in a search engine somewhere.

Now there are 15 guests all looking at the "how to approach a girl thread".

Something weird going on in this place.

Well yeah... but when you log on, and see 15 members, 2 hidden, and over 600 guests...

Never mind that almost the entire first page is looking at the pic thread....

I think some of the forums should be off limits to guests. That way, they have an incentive to join the forum! Gamingforce has a policy like this for the music parts of their website and it has proven successful.

You have to go introduce yourself now.  Anything but piano board, intro thread.
