An excellent plan

you know who wrote:which reveal that out of 888 registered users, 800 have never posted anything at all!

If any of Mr G's moles are amongst the nearly 900 registered users, they could easily enough establish that far more than 88 people have posted to the forum. Even if you look down the names of those not posting, there are many familiar ones.

I think it can make sense, even for observers to register, since then features like "view new posts" or "view unread posts" can work.

That was David Robertson, I think, in the '100,000 posts' thread.

Despite the inaccurate post of pip-squeak Giddins which he seems unable to correct it does appear 613 members have posted at least one post and we still get around 2,000 unique visitors per day

An inaccuracy he has just repeated. Does he not get why he is wrong or is he relying on his readership not fact checking him?

Although David started the thread, it was your own useful analysis at the foot of Page 1 I was thinking of.
