Why is there always so many guests?

People who lurk on threads and haven't made an account, simple. And I've seen alot of those guests end up being bots as well lmao.

Especially when there's big news, people from other forums like Reddit come he to see the tea. But I've seen a significant increase in guests after the revamp, some troll thread had like 179 guests at it's peak, in the old days you could only get those numbers if there was some BIG news

The fact that you can't see most posts unless you sign up will probably push them away tbh.
