Hey Mildred,

I’m going to need confirmation here, but I’m fairly sure that a forum user is a forum user, and can’t be excluded in the way you want them to be, although maybe this topic would be useful?

I don’t recall any previous request to allow for ‘hidden’ new members and sorry – I do not think there is any current mechanism that would help there, I think, at this point in time the best suggestion is simply to remove the display of new members but that’s is a bit of a sledgehammer/nut idea…

users can also ‘hide’ their online status… that is, they will not show up as online…  but anything they do will still show up in the stats…
