Avalon Forum Stats

[mojo]

Hi members, guests, Bill and Mod team,
I was curious to know the statistics of our forum. I noticed on the front page of our site it shows some info that I copied and posted below. It is helpful but I'm curious to know what our membership is and even if possible the guests visitation. I understand if it can't be posted for privacy issues. thank you,
mojo

[bennycog]

i notice on certain words in a post, if you scroll over them, there is a chance to win an iphone or some other advertising.. is it just my computer or are other people getting it too?

[lilac]

I think that's your computer bennycog... I've never seen ads here.

[bennycog]

yeah i think it is too.. when i refreshed it came up with a totally different word.. guess i better get to doing a scan..

hey mojo did not mean to get off topic.. i got into your post and most of the words led to links :)

when i am away working i probably contibute to the guest visitation by a few, because i do not log on on other computers, unless i want to post..

this was happening to me on the Nexus forum, & apparently not to others -- i posted to ask

[wynderer]

hi bennycog -- i sometimes have these kind of weird things happen w/my computer -- computer geek friends always give me strange looks when they are working on it

the glitches always stop by themselves -- luckily, because i deliberately remain computer ignorant, refusing to learn to think like a machine

sometimes i think someone out there fixes these things for me

Sounds like cyber-cooties.

Don't know exactly what you're searching for, maybe this:

3717 members so far mojo

[mojo]

ty bennycog that helps where did you find the number?

I looked where christian mentioned and I only found this stat.
144 members and 885 guests

Most users ever online was 2040, 23rd August 2011 at 12:36.

[Kindred]

FWIW, frequently I will check the forums without logging in, just to see "what's happening". Also, I don't know the details of this functioning, but could web-bots / "spiders"(?), be identified as 'guests'? That would make sense to me. But, I'm not a 'techie'...

hey mojo.. i went to the members section. then scrolled down the bottom.. it said results 1 - 50 out of 3717
so assumed 3717 members.. or am i wrong mods? might it be members since start of avalon.. people that have left and people that are still here..

[mojo]

Ty Midnight Rambler that was the number I was lookng for...:)

[Ernie Nemeth]

I often see that there are x numger of members watching a thread but when you count the names it is one less.

Why is that?

Just now I was in a thread where there were two members and 17 guests. But the names of members only listed myself...
I just assume it is the mods, or Bill, who can somehow stay in the shadows.
Is that right?

[frances]

144 seems a re-occurring number. I do not understand it, but it jumps out. Frances.

In the settings there is an option to make yourself "invisible", that option is available to everyone.

[Ernie Nemeth]

That's what I love the most about life.
If you are open there is always more to learn.
Thanks Christian

12 x 12, the number of harmonic overtones of our universe.

I had the same problem for a brief time. It baffled me, because here are definitely and absolutely no ads on the Avalon site.

Ilie found the solution: click here...

http://skimlinks.com/opt-out

You'll find that you've mysteriously been 'opted in' (as I was) -- though you never signed up for it. Just opt out, and the ads will not show up again.

[bennycog]

i went in and reset my internet explorer and that worked a charm.. though all my history and usernames and such got wiped but that can only be a good thing lol

cheers bill
