To Make Posts is Glorious

Some threads will get posts before others and it is the duty of the Leadership to ensure that posts are made that best suit the public welfare.

"heh"

Spammers would use that to see if the mods aren't on.

So no.

How dose that tell you if mods are on? It just shows if there are registed users or not on. Dosn't know whos mod or not.

I meant that it would show how many USERS are on, not if the mods were on. that shouldn't be realeased to the public because spammer would try to see if the mods are on or not. that, I agree.

would you want bungie to have a thing somewhere in the forums that tells you how many people aer on right now? like if there are only 15 people in one form, or there are 500 in another. your thoughts? I would want that in the forums. what do you think?

I see what you're saying. What if this website had that feature for every section (ex: The Flood, Optimatch, etc.........)?

Just to let you know, a lot is two words.

I wouldn't mind seeing how many people are online, it would give me a good idea on how much I'm outnumbered...

I don't personally see the point of it. I mean..sure it might be kinda interesting to know but..like..what's the point? I'd personally want to see something more worth the time and effort to be implemented.

well, if you can see how many people are on, ten you know what forum is most active. that way you can choose th best forums to post in and stuff.

Ok nevermind.

The showing how many people are on the forums is a good idea because of these reasons:

1. you can tell if you should post in the group
2. you know if the forum is active right now
3. you know what forum will have the most people, thus which will be most active, and so you know when to post in what
4. because then it is easier to see how many people are on right now
5. it lets the moderators know that the forum is very active, so they can police the forums a lot more accurately.

why it's bad:
1. because... well, ummmmm... it...uh... well..it...kinda...well... hard to think why it would be all that bad.
