Guests should be able to view the board.

They can view just not post. It gets rid of the drive by posters who just post stupid, inflammatory stuff.

It appears you now need to log in, even if you just want to view the forum. If possible, my preference would be to allow the forum to be viewed without logging in, but to require logging in to post.

Yeah, I'm with GoYotes. Didn't realize you couldn't even view it without being logged in.
The drive-by posters aren't that bad. I don't think we've been spammed. Reading the posts you can tell the "guest" is some SDSU fan that won't register. I just dismiss what they say anymore.

Well, yeah I wish they could view and then login to post, but there isn't that option. After not even 24 hours after I implemented the rule, we have had 11 new members sign up today. It doesn't cost anything to log in and signup is easy, so that went with the decision.

Well, if it helps drive numbers then I guess I agree.

Yeah, 21 people have signed up today alone, so yeah. I was concerned too, but with so many people signing up...I definitely have to go with it.

Yeah, I was wondering that too. Right now just one guest is online. Invisible users are people who are signed up but can appear as invisible and only the admin can see if they are online. Don't know why.

Could the invisible be Coyote Fan? Haha. He's got to be going nuts soon not posting anything anywhere.
