User to Guest ratio

[Starwhip]

I find it odd that there are consistently around ten times as many guests on the forum as there are members. And usually there are more than 1000 guests online at any time, regardless of the number of registered members.

Based on the "who's viewing" numbers on the sub-forums, it seems as if guests are also counted, is that true?

Also, I vaguely remember guest restrictions on the forum; I believe that's why I originally signed up. Do those still exist?

Just by looking at the numbers, there are about 3x as many people looking at Add-on Releases than there are online registered members, so i'd say yes.

A quick look through the forums logged out says no, aside from the obvious needing an account to post.
