...we seem to be getting a lot of "guests" around here these days? Under "Users Online", it currently says, "26 guests, 17 users"... we used to almost never have more "guests" listed than users, now that seems to ahppen all the time. I wonder why?
Edit: Now up to 30 guests, 14 users!
Want a paranoid guess? The guests are actually members who have "gone away" but check in from time to time without logging in (and, yes, I know one can login and stay hidden).
Second guess: as Google continues to crawl these forums, more and more people looking for information about, e.g., copyrighted characters are referred here.

How about that the release of a new budget package of ffv3r has led to more people interested enough to browse the forum, but who dont want to post?

Doesn't it understand that I need it to be sending out viagra ads, and NOT browsing forums?
Jeez. You just can't get good help anymore.
If I may be allowed a further observation, I think it is safe to remark that noticing this trend (and becoming engaged in broader discussion of it) speaks volumes about the lifers around here, far more than could ever be written about guest frequencies. ;) :P ;)

No.
Ditto. You observe way too much around here, ots. I'll have those jocular oculars, if you please.
Oh thank god they were starting to itch!

Oh...Jocular.
