Just for kicks today, to put some prospective with the various threads on the ever present "site-issues," I did a little study here on MM.NET.

As of:

8:30 Am 31 members on line and 48 guests.
11:30 AM - 39 members - 47 guests
1:30 PM - 42 members - 52 guestsIMO this shows that MM.NET is still "the site" for Marauder enthusiasts regardless of what is being said here and there. If you enjoy MCM, great. If you enjoy MM.NET great. If you enjoy them both great. Have at it.

The question is "I wonder who all these guests are." :confused:

guests can simply be people who linked here from another site, such as google for example.. they arent logged in members, but are browsing the forums. Maybe the forum is set up to recognise search bots as guests as well..

Either way, it is good to see the activity and interest.

There are a couple of ways to look at your data, but they mislead.

For example, any member who wishes to visit the site anonymously, for whatever reason, is not going to show up in "who's online".

Also, there are many visitors who are doing marketing research and data mining, as well as, perhaps, Ford/Mercury exec's just checking customer's views. If I'm at a computer station, not my own, I always use visitor mode.

You're ratio seems about right, though; but there have been times when there may be just a handful of members and 2-3 pages, sometimes more, of visitors, especially early in the morning ~ 6AM on the east coast, which could mean we have European visitors ..or Martins. :eek:

I sure hope youre right about Ford execs "data mining" here. Ill save them the trouble of interpretating my thoughts; most new FoMoCo products suck. Fire that hag running Mercury and put some car guys in charge. Then make something we want, not some POS with squareyround headlights.
