Hello, so if 2 member's are on line & 15 guest's & some hidden, how does all this work, so can anyone just look in without actually being a member, what do they actually get to see on line?. If they are a guest don't they want to become a member ever to grow the platform.
Or am I barking up the wrong tree .

Guests can read the topics but can’t reply to any so not get involved in any of the discussions going on. They can’t obviously get involved in any of our competitions. It used to be that they couldn’t see photos but I think they now can. They can’t send or receive PMs. It’s a shame that even some of the members do join don’t post or even login again once they have become members. We, myself and Buster as administrators, have to accept them, or in the case of spammers delete them. Every so often we will delete some members who have joined and not been active again.

If guest couldn’t read the posts would that not encourage them to join Andy ?

You would think so Neil. I’m not sure that can be done though. You would hope that some of the guests looking in would be interested in some of the topics and join the forum and get involved.

It can be done Andy, by leaving the forum open it will hopefully encourage folks to join and hopefully get involved

I think there are a good few, that have looked in and moved on. The season finished so the long cold winter kicks in, but you never know.

It tells you at bottom of the board who are latest members but think that is only a daily and changes if someone else joins, also most online and when
