What is up with these guests? I've put posted things before, then I go back to see it again after a while, and almost everytime I do, i'm the only member on the topic, but there are like 10-20 guests on the topic, are they members who haven't logged in? Or are they people who haven't signed up? IT'S FREE!!!

I'm not seeing which part should make you angry.
Are you just angry because they're there?
Some guests are most likely new comers who are looking into the forum to see what it's about.
There's nothing wrong with not being a member.

I ask questions in my topics, and when I see guests on the page, for some reason I feel like they know the answer!

Well if that's the case, you may just convince them to sign up to answer you. Be glad!

Oh, they know the answer alright Mario. They just don't wanna tell you.

Why's everyone trying to be a smart a**? the guests, to me, I feel like they're mocking me for my attempt to find the answers.

Mario,

Relax, they're just teasing you a little, no reason for the snippy comment.

This is a very large forum, at just about any time there are always 10 times more guests/visitors reading the forum than actively participating. There could be any number of reasons why they don't register, most importantly though, is that the forum is interesting and entertaining enough that it draws the number of people it does. 20 to 30 new members register every day, perhaps one of those reading your post today will register tomorrow or in the next couple days and add their opinion at that time. Sometimes you just have to be patient.

Do you work at U.M.?

He's a moderator. They keep the forums safe and clean for us civilians.

You shouldn't be so paranoid, I'm sure it's nothing personal.

yeah,yeah, It's nothing personal, you're right........... DID SOMEONE REPORT ME?

No not at all, there are mods around nearly all of the time that contribute...read...moderate...whatever needs to be done.

Shouldn't that make you happy? I mean it just means more people are reading a topic.

if something as silly as this makes you angry ( ) then maybe you should stop posting new topics...

right now there are 0 guests reading this topic

and now there are 7.....

You haven't meet me yet...!!!!

You shouldn't be singling them out ; you should be happy that they're interested in what you have to say in whatever thread it is you posted

I go away for a bit, and people are then angry that GUESTS are reading their threads?

*starts thinking I never should've left...*

Okay, okay. Now, I remember starting a couple of threads where I saw people reading and they didn't post. That wasn't fun. But guests? Honey, you'll be alright.

Im sorry i have more than once gone through the forum... and looked at all kinds a topics.. but then when i go to post a reply its says in not signed on.. so i can say im guilty of being a "guest" so.. yeah...

Then just stay logged on forever. That's what I do.

tee hee that was cute kratos mildly put !

Too funny!! Also not sure why you're getting your nuts in a knot Mario, what about it if a HUNDRED people want to just read and not join/respond???

I read almost every thread, but rarely post (member almost a year, but less than 500 posts) because I like to make sure what I have to say will really contribute to the thread. I see no point in posting about stuff I dont know and looking like an idiot, or posting my thoughts on a subject when someone has already stated the same thing. Sometimes I will read through 10+ pages of people bickering, saying "wow" or repeating themselves. so please do not get upset that not everyone posts on every topic. The few times I have posted a "wow" or "thats horrible" is because I have had extremely strong feelings towards the subject of the thread.
