________________________________________________
Has anybody noticed how our "guest" count has been higher lately?
All this new activity on the board has been attracting larger numbers of All Sci-Fi's Silent Fan Club — like, some of the 154 members who don't log in because they're just enjoying the work of the "active members", along with other folks who've never actually registered.
The screenshot below was made today at 5:00 pm.
The Classic Horror Film Board has 11,237 members — but they only had 28 guests at 5:00 pm!
Let's keep these adoring fans entertained, guys! We owe it to our public.

Well, gosh, THIS is weird!
We only had 26 guests today when I started a post in the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thread.
Disappointing . . .
And yet, twenty minutes later — after I'd submitted my post — I checked again and found this!
Good lord, what could have caused this sudden stampede of guests to All Sci-Fi?
Well, maybe this is the reason.
I discovered that there are apps like TraceMyIP that provide an "online visitor monitoring service" which scans websites 24x7 for online visitor activity . . . and instantly notifies website owners!
So, maybe the folks in All Sci-Fi's Silent Fan Club are somehow getting alerts each time their favorite message boards get something new.
A few hours later the guest count had dropped back to 56. So, I conducted an experiment.
I added four new posts to Threads about Imaginary Sequels & Alternate Plotlines and then checked the quests count again.
It was hack up to 92!
Guys, if you're discouraged by the low number of replies you're getting with your posts, take heart! They ARE being read and enjoyed by dozens of people who rush to All Sci-Fi the minute you submit them.
So, get busy, guys! Your fans are waiting!_ _________________ ____________

This evening, after enjoying a record-breaking number of new posts on All Sci-Fi, I checked our"guest count" at the bottom of the main index before retiring for the night.
I was delighted to find that it was a record-breaking day for those as well — with 99 guests!
I'm hoping that tomorrow our members will continue to pump new energy into All Sci-Fi and help us break the 100 mark! _________________ ____________

My goodness! The "guest count" has been over 100 during most of the day recently — but today it hit 142!
That was common during the Covid-19 lock downs a few years ago, but not recently!
Just for fun, I checked the current quest count for the Classic Horror Film Board and discovered that (as usual) we had a lot more guests than they did.
They only had 47 "visitors", which is 1/3 as many as we did — despite the fact that they have 11,353 members!
So, if you ever start thinking that All Sci-Fi is just sleepy board with very little activity, rest assured that the posts we make are being read and enjoyed by plenty of people. _________________ ____________

That is so encouraging Bud!!!

A new All Time High for All Sci-Fi!
Today we had 103 guests, and I noticed that on April 19, 2023 we had 646 folks on line!
Proof positive (again) that what we do here on All Sci-Fi is definitely attracting the attention of folks on the web. _________________ ____________
