To see total users and guests you have to go to the main index page (we normally have 20 - 30 guests).

The statistics you saw Phil were for the forum you were currently viewing (I know we call the entire GRF a forum but actually each section is a forum).

The total registered users have either been or are active with content posted or active viewers but no posts.

I periodically delete registered users who do not post or login to the forum after x amount of time.

Thanks Tom.
So in fact the ratio of non-posters to posters is probably even higher than I thought?

I think that's true of most forums or similar style sites.

You could get some interesting stats out of this, even if it confirms our prejudices about garden railways being the preserve of men, mostly middle aged or older, probably bearded real ale drinkers. Hang on, that's me :scratch: :lol:
As soon as I see a survey these days I go on the defensive, as there is usually some hidden motive or data trawling involved. I know there are no questionable motives in this case, so I will give it a go I s'pose.

in the section 'Do you have a garden railway' it could be handy to have an option for 'under construction but not yet operating' or does it still count as a garden railway?
