P06781 Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Wow 168 people online yet only 7 registered members on a hot day in July on a website about hardboot snowboarding? There must be alot of people just about to try hardbooting or what? killing time Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coldrider Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Maybe there are lots of guests to the forum poised to try hardboot carving. I'm confident I'm not alone in recommending BOL to anyone who asks about hardboot gear and technique. Other reasons for high-viewer counts are bots and still-logged in members. There is another discussion on the same topic and explanation of seemingly high VBulletin numbers over on EpicSki. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailertrash Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 you can go here to see who is online and what they are viewing. people stay logged in for 15 minutes from their last activity. I think more guests show up when users don't allow cookies to be set, so a new "guest" session is started for every click if cookies aren't allowed. I haven't proven this out, just a guess. when you view the above link you can see there are a lot of bots viewing profiles. there are also a lot of folks who try to reply to threads that aren't members or aren't logged in. the guest number though is inflated. john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
