    I'm just wondering if anyone else has noticed the huge number of guests we constantly have online here at GSS. At the moment, there is me, and 18 guests online, And yesterday, there was 23! Any idea as to why there are so many.

    Guests: Please register...

          WTF??

          Oh yeah, one time I was the only person here and there were 25 guests, sort of unnerving...

            Hmm. That's why I did that... I remember now. I made it on my message boards that guests cant see the topics unless they register. That way, not so many guests.

              isn't that a bit harsh?

              how will they see your site and want to register to it?

                Thats what I think, it's good to let them view the board so they know what they are registering for. Otherwise they won't take the time to register for something they don't even know.

                  This is a great website, your bound to get lots of people browsing the forums who don't want to actually register. I do that all the time at other sites :D.

                    =P Let the guests take time to see the Forums, and if they like it, let them join. If they dont, then they dont. Simple as that.

                      Personally, I think guests should only be allowed to see the following:

                      Announcements

                      GSW Forums(All)
                      GS Forums(All)
                      TLA Forums(All)

                      Other-Games
                      Web Design
                      Entertainment
                      Off-Topic

                      Introduction


                      The reason for omitting Forum Help/Suggestions/FanFiction/Artwork/Spam is because those are member exclusive services. Guests don't need to be concerned in them.

                        yeh but what's the point exactly of doing so coz they aren't interested see...

                        but I think just letting them view the boards is alright coz it's their loss in not joining :mellow:
