Really...huh. It always seems like whenever I go on Iwaku their active online count is always lower than RPguild. Unless both sites count guests as part of their total count. I just checked Iwaku a few minutes ago, and it said their active count was 245, except about a third of those were guests. If RPG functions the same way, that's one thing, but otherwise I think it's in the middle of the 3

also i tried to do rpnation for a little bit and was plagued with the same issues mentioned in this thread, including disappearing GMs, but also very pretty threads with no substance to them

RPG does count guests, but it should be noted that people who are marked as "Guests" may actually have their online/offline status hidden (for example, I'm "invisible" so I appear as a "Guest" instead of as a user). I'm not actually sure if Iwaku works in a similar fashion as I was only briefly on there for a few days. As for RPNation, I found it to be bland and got bored on those forums rather quickly, haha.
