    Don't know whether its the case here, but some forums can be set so the stats only show the number of active accounts rather than total number of accounts overall - so that could mean that there are 2.5k accounts which never clicked the activated email link or something of that nature.

    Banned accounts and deleted accounts arent showing. So it is "technically" our 100k member, but about 3000 have been banned or deleted.

    EDIT: Banned accounts do show up actually, so weve had *takes out calculator* 2,483 deleted accounts! WOOT

    er, Shawn doesn't delete accounts. If they do anything with them other than banning, they MERGE duplicate accounts. BAM!!! Two accounts become one.

    Many of the members never verified their emails and these aren't included in the member count.

    As far as I know, banned members are included in the member count.

    All being verified does is changes you from the unverified usergroup to the normal one.
