Why is there so many guests?

Right now the site says that there is 597 guets browsing the forums...
Either this place have a LOT of guests or i think you guys need to watch out for the "Spambot D-day"... It happened to another forum that i was active on... they couldnt handle the mess so they were forced to open up a new one.

Re: Why is there so many guests?

We always have lots of guests...
if you google "Fable forums", you'll see projectego.net is the first name that pops up, so we tend to get pretty heavy traffic... it's completely normal, don't worry...
this is actually a pretty slow day for us... if you notice our highest count was 920

I wouldn't say weird... more like awesome...
more guests means more people coming by for info and such, which means more people joining and adding to the community :w00t:

Yeah we have a lot of guests and also a lot of search spiders that show up as guests (good thing) and some people just like viewing the updates and news until they have something to add themselves.

Members wise? No not at all... more members only benefit the popularity of the site and not our pockets.

They should register to the boards instead of beeing anonymous

Well its their choice if they want to or not, obviously they would benefit from registering in many ways but its their decision.

you know you guys could be making a decent amount of money if you had a few ads down the side or somtin, not many, just like a few so that you dont notice em to much. but yeah, makin a bit of money for the site wouldnt be to bad, then you could attract even more people with competitions and stuff thatll be funded by the money you make.

We do have ads its just as a reward for registering they are invisible to you to stop them interfering with your forum browsing experience. There are ads on the main homepage though, we make enough to pay for the hosting etc from them.
