Who are you?

There are currently 10 people online right now, me plus 9 'guests'. Who are all you people? Are you lurkers? Are you registered members who haven't logged in? Or are we infested with web bots again, harvesting emails to spam us at a later date?

If you are all lurkers, how about one or two of you registering? It will only take a minute or two and we're quite a friendly bunch really.

Let's aim for 5 new registered members this weekend. Who is going to be first?

That was me - I was bored at work today and when colleagues were sleeping/skivving I logged them all in as guests.

Sorry to be pedantic but it was the middle of the night (12.37 am) not lunchtime...must have been these "bots" again. Can I say that?

Bob, how about making all the forums Register Hidden, so you have to register to read the threads!

Theres nothing worse than a "Guest" Posting IMO!

Because there's nothing worse than a private wee clique! Guests can read, but not post.

Yours, the phpBB donkey.

We have one or two hidden forums but the main forums can be read by anyone, though only registered members can post.

Would not be surprised - it's confusing getting telephones calls when I'm just up and he's just had his tea! He and Mr Lizzie and the ex Mayor of Joppa seem to be having fun despite the cold!!
