I love the new feature to see how many people are in different forums. It gives a great sense of just how popular some of them are. I actually could care less who they are and it would bother me a bit if the handles were no longer visible. It's the totals I find fascinating.

But, there are many people who make themselves invisible online for various reasons. Those people don't seem to be showing up in the stats.

Anyway to add "hidden users" to the count?

I've been under the impression that the hidden ones are included. The other day, I was looking at a forum and it showed 5 viewing, but only 3 names...

What/who are the "guests" listed in the totals? (## active users and ## guests) I thought you had to be registered to view FT?

No, you only have to be registered to see certain forums. Anyone else can read FT without logging in.

I see my name, even though I'm invisible. So I guess that I'm counted.

Of course you're counted. FT will let you know that you're online and even show you what you've been looking at when you look at your own profile. Everyone else ('cept for the HOM staff, I suppose) can't tell what you're looking at.
