number of members vs guests on this site....

[heywooood]

14 members.... and 62 guests just now

I presume some of those guests are actually members who are browsing without logging in but...

how many people: Log in every time they come here..? (I probably log in 1/3 of the time)
how many people: Never Log Out...?
how many people: Prefer Crunchy Peanut butter to the Smooooth..?

If you find yourself guesting all the time but haven't registered yet....whatsamattayou? not that there's anything wrong with it...
sorry if this question is in the wrong place...I just thought that was a wide big margin

Could all those guests be Steam'ers?

[falcon409]

That is a wide margin. For the most part I stay logged in.

[Marvin Carter]

I stay log in all the time, come here about five times a day!!!

[Jafo]

I never logout.

I have 6 'default' tabs that autoload 'if' I ever reboot..... SOH is one of 'em...;)

[Daveroo]

i stay logged in all the time

[heywooood]

huh..and here I thought I was somewhere in the average...logging in generally but not always.

for this reason I am often late to be aware of any PM's I get - maybe I should stay logged in too -

but now that 'guest' number begins to look a little more interesting...

All I will say then to any potential member of this site is that you gain access to the venerable library of add on aircraft, scenery, ships etc...some of which you would be hard pressed to find elsewhere, if you do decide to register...

and who knows, maybe someday you could see your moniker all dressed in red letters - like the cool kids lol

[manfredc3]

I am auto-logged in every time I load the site, and am here several times a day.

[roger-wilco-66]

Same with me, auto logged in all the time.


The number of guests also could countain accesses from crawling scripts / bots / reference checkers from search engines or whatever, so this number does not neccessarily reflect a site usage by real persons.

Cheers,
Mark

[Tim-HH]

I'm only auto logged in on my desktop computer. So whenever I visit the site with my iPhone or iPad I'm just a guest.

Greetings

[Peg o my heart]

Yes, logged out only at the office, or sitting on the right

[Naismith]

Permanently logged in - except when I have an enforced reboot and/or occasionally clear out of the cache.

[DaveWG]

Crunchy.

Oh, and I stay logged in.

[papab]

Logged in all the time:encouragement:

[stansdds]

My home computer stays logged in. The only time I show up here as a guest is if I am on another computer or something happened and my log in cookies were deleted.

[Wizard]

Always login and out. Once in a great while I forget to log in.

[Duckie]

Desktop stays logged in. Mobile devices not.

[gradyhappyg]

Crunchy on bread smooth on crackers.
Stay logged in.

If I'm on my notebook, I'm logged in. If I'm on my desktop, or following a link from another site/thread/Google then I may well not be as they don't always follow the auto-login details unfortunately. That's something else to think of.

Can't eat peanut butter. I'd rather have a wife not having a violent allergic reaction to it.

[jankees]

Crunchy, and logged in/on

yes - I had considered that might also account for an unknown percentage...I wonder if it is unquantifiable...

I stay logged in, but can't say I'm a fan of peanut butter.

[T Square]

:untroubled: I stay logged in all the time, but tell me oh mighty powerful Oz, what difference does it really make ?

[Daveroo]

peanutbutter??...well i like both,but i cant have smooth because father doesnt like it,and he wont even buy it for me out here as a snack..(i pay "rent"..but its actually my food money share)....

back to log in,,im logged it auto all the time,,or the "remember me" box is checked,only time its not is when i do a system clean with CCleaner,or this thing wont boot...speaking of..my pc is new,will run FSX wonderfully,BUT ive had to re-install three times now,the OS has been re-installed the three times.

would it be true,that if my Ibuypower keyboard and mouse were plugged into the blue 3.0 ports on top of my pc,or even my external HD,which was first used to back up flight sim files under the XP OS,then Vista and now win 8.1..in the top mounted blue 3.0 ports,would that cause my pc to try to "boot to those peripherals"? so said the nice guy i talked to at ibuypower,its seems to me to be true as i tried it again after i got off the phone with the guy,i rebooted,it started fine,then i shut it down,plugged the KB/mouse into the two blue 3.0's and poof,it wouldnt start.hard shut down,unplug/plug into rear black,and normal start up,why?

I always log off when I leave. Crunchy is no good.

[glennc]

I make an effort to stay logged in but I have enough devices it can be confusing. One or two of them don't get used much and the cookies get lost.

Smooth. Much like how you called people "Steam'ers" and no one else has laughed at that (it seems).

I would call people steamers all the time if I could. Nicely done. (I am an old school FS2/9/X guy, but I have steam too, so don't hate)

[fsxar177]

Always logged in here..

Some of those 'guests' are likely bots.

:untroubled: I stay logged in all the time, but tell me oh mighty powerful Oz, what difference does it really make ?

well in the whole grand configuration of things...it doesn't I s'pose - I just thought that if many of those guests were actual folks who were no already registered, they might consider registering if we talked about them all openly and finger pointy and a whatnot.



BtW : I am also a Steam'er BrittMac lol


the words you have seen here today were intended for entertainment purposes only and contained no real meaning. No vowels or consonants were harmed even as the english language itself was brutally murdered..carry on then

on the thread - yes

[JimmyRFR]

Smooooooooooooooooooth only.

Anything else is an abomination. :)

Oh, and I stay logged in. I'm lazy and I hate logging in/out. However, if / when I browse on one of my mobile devices, I'm too lazy to log in...

I'm also a Steam'er, but not for FSX at this point. That said, this darn sale that just launched is going to make me very, very poor. Almost everything in my wishlist is 33 - 50% off right now...

I stay logged in, with a Bookmark on the Taskbar. I also check in quite frequently.

If there were only members browsing and no guests I'd call that the beginning of the end for this site. Why doesn't crunchy come with a box of toothpicks? :biggrin-new:

[txnetcop]

Autologged and CRUNCHY..mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[CodyValkyrie]

I'd be willing to bet that a lot of those "guests" are simply people using Google to find simple solutions to questions, such as technical problems, release information, pictures, etc.

Anthin.

[Paul Domingue]

Smooth and creamy with a little honey on graham crackers. I'm auto logged in and visit several times a day.

[Sundog]

Always logged in.

[Javis]

Hate it to see i'm logged off every now and then for whatever reason.

I'd like my peanut butter to be smooth. My frogs however i'd like to be crunchy.

[WND]

I have to say I visit the sight several times a day and I log in / roam around / make a few comments now and then if need be / and log out EACH time !!

Oh, grew up on PP & J - like creamy and smooth !!

Most likely true.

[wombat666]

Always log in and 'auto' log out.
No commercial 'Peanut Butter' here, we make our own 'Peanut Paste' in whatever variety floats yer boat!
:jump:

[modelr]

Stay logged in all the time. Visit site several times a day.

Prefer crunchy, but can't chew it anymore. Can't keep top plate in mouth due to extreme gag reflex. NOT FUNNY!! :banghead: So I eat smooth & creamy, straight from the jar.

[pfflyers]

I'm logged in all the time. Laziness mostly. Often visit several times a day.

Smooth these days. In my younger days I preferred crunchy then I saw the true path to peanut butter bliss, and it was smooth.

I'm a brand new steamer too.

[DaveSHQ]

Crunchy and logged out unless I want to post something.

I don't want my kids pranking me. Yeah they're jokesters sometimes

that's my situation - my son is the very same kind of 'opportunist'
he doesnt live with us anymore, but old habits as they say.

on another note, the peanut butter poll has been interesting...
I never knew what a lightning rod it could be.. Some folks are
committed to their style of spread... as it were

That's a good idea, never occurred to me.

Smooth PB. When I was found to have type 2 diabetes I thought that would be the end of my PB indulgence. Attended a three 1/2 day seminars and the nurses there said it was OK in moderation i.e. 1 Tblspn a day. I have a very large tablespoon I told them.

Peanut butter should be fresh ground to smooth then combined with chocolate. Fresh ground peanuts can be added for texture.

[jmbiii]

I stay logged in on desktop. Other devices not.
As to PB, I like both, but wife only buys smooth. Summer time favorite - PB sandwich with fresh cucumber slices ! Dill pickle slices are a good substitute when cukes are not available.:jump:
