That seems to tell me the number of active players is around 302,054. |

If it's the latter we have 800k verified accounts and 9.2 million unverified "freebie" accounts, which wouldn't actually surprise me. |

Banned and cancelled accounts (and accounts who lapse on payment) do get deleted entirely and removed from the stats. --- Does anyone know whether your forum account gets created the first time you try to visit the forums, or as soon as you put in payment info? If it's the latter we have 800k verified accounts and 9.2 million unverified "freebie" accounts, which wouldn't actually surprise me. ah yes ofcourse, that makes sense when we got almost 4million accounts increase in like 3 months  LL will do anything to inflate any figure that will make them look good so don`t believe that for 1 single nanosecond heh _____________________

There was a one-time glitch where a handful of unverified accounts did get access to the forums, but that was very limited in time I think (from what I remember from Torley's post about it) and LL never did revoke their forum access. (The 800k figure comes from the bottom of the page on the forum lists btw) |
