Hey Sluff,

I agree with Boxman55, when I was on IHD early this morning it said 1502 members. What did you do with them???  :secret;

Those were members (or Spammers) waiting to be approved, once we deny them, they are deleted and the member count goes back down again.  Thank you for noticing though,  :2thumbsup;

Cuz when we delete the spammers, the post count goes down the same amount of Spammers we deny and delete.  :2thumbsup;

Good example: This morning the member count was 1509. There were 14 spammers that I had to delete which brought it back to 1495.

Usually a screwed up name or you get used to what e-mail addresses are phony or sometimes we email them before thy are approved. A spammer won't answer your emails.

We are so close to 1500, but I never see that many post, I wonder how many actually post and how many just read and/or never log in?
