Does the total number reflect the constant stream of jumbled letters that keep registering as users?

The number of active users would be a better representation. Those jumbled letters and numbers are almost all spammers that we get rid of. Banned users aren't counted as active.

That's good! And very interesting.

No wonder Poof doesn't show the number of active members in its front-page stats. I wonder how many active members it has?

In truth, the real number at Poof, as compared by the way we tabulate our stats would be around 30. The advantage we have is that virtually every registered member is active. In just over a month, we are already coming close to surpassing Poof in terms of total US website ranking. I believe we currently rank third in overall cigar forum rankings and will soon be moving up.
