You mean like the guest number in the "Currently Active Users?" Guests are people who are on the forums but aren't logged in.

You're sure of this how?

The word "Guests" is actually used on the forum index, and she wasn't specific. That's why my post began with a question for clarification.

If the question is on guest posts, that was already answered here (http://virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=25994) ("guest posts are deleted accounts"). Guests cannot post on the forums.

To answer your second question [why guests are listed in the currently active users], guests are listed there because a guest is anyone who is viewing the site but is either A) not a member and is just checking out the site before registering, B) a googlebot, MSNbot, etc., or C) a member of VT who just isn't logged in. They're listed under "currently active users" because well, they're viewing the site, and well, the site records who's viewing the site and how many people are viewing the site. The site doesn't just record how many registered users are viewing the site, it also records how many guests are viewing the site too.

A) see my old thread

B) guests who are viewing are non-members who are brousing the sites or google spyders
