Guest fountainhall Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 One statistic has niggled me for some weeks. When you open the Forums page, down there on the bottom right side is a note - Online At Once Record - 582 15 December 2010 - 10:01 PM I am really curious. What on earth was happening that evening to give it the most viewed record? Quote

Rogie Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 My hunch is Moses is probably right. High season will be here soon so monitoring the daily 'active users' shouldn't be too onerous. If the average per day shows a upward trend from early Nov onwards, hitting a peak around mid-Dec then bob's yer uncle, conundrum solved. Solved, that is, provided there's a smooth upward trend. If not, and it proves to have been an anomaly, we're back to square one. Actually that raises another question: as I write we have 142 'active users' which comprises 6 members and 136 guests. Well, maybe some of the '6', me included, are indeed 'active'. But what about our 136 guests? Are they all active or do we also have a category for 'inactive' guests? OK, sorry to come across as a bit sarkie there, but I cannot see how guests can be 'active' when they cannot post. Only members can do that. Quote
