Scully Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 I often notice the numbers of 'guests' viewing the forum outnumbers the actual members. Who are the 'guests'? Just browsers who aren't members? And if so, what is the difference between a 'guest' and an 'anonymous' user? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmytree Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Guests are just reading posts, anonymous is a member who is registered but chooses to hide his identity so no one knows he is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Guests are indeed browsers. Anonymous users would be people who were logged in with an anonymity option ticked, but that feature was disabled ages ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue jimny Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Think it's just members having a look to see what's going on must admit I do it when I get a chance. But then there is always the conspiracy theory mmmmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
