the number of online players we show is very honest, cause we show only the players that are minimum online for at least a certain time, and only the ones that were online during the last 8 days.

other games count all their registrations, just to have a huge number (we would have 10 thousands then)

i think you should show both seperately. it would be handy, and give a better assesment of just how many players play.

I agree with KoT, it would be fair and impressing at the same time...

That was for the forums, and hidden players or guests wheren't counted. I remember that day. Way too crowded.

On the main page show the 10,000 number.
To attract more attention.

Then inside the game you can have it say "Number of accounts 10,000"
"Number of Active players 250"

or whatever... this will really help Spacetrace.
