Hidden users, guests? What is the deal with this feature?
Who are these odd invisible lurkers? CIA, MI6 KGB?
Anyone know? :?

I'm pretty sure many people here, as I do, have RAT bookmarked and the site is open on one of the browsertabs, but aren't logged in actually.
... as to the hidden ones :? ... dunno, may be a Mod in stealth-modus ;-) )

I know... :twisted:
Guests: anyone who is on the site but not logged in. We have hundreds of lurkers visiting the site every day -> we have about 400 active users (visited the site once a month or more), but over 1,500 unique visitors/day!
Hidden users: some people don't like to be seen logged in on the forum. I suppose a moderator could operate that way, yeah, but afaik none of them do so.

So basically, if I log on, then my session times out, I become a guest?
So who could the hidden lurkers, I mean 'user' be then? Some very dodgy people out there I fear? :roll:  hock: :?

Nope thats not dodgy at all LOL, seems along the lines of "Come with me lil kiddies and if you join I'll give you some candy."
Just messing of course
