Yeah the "Members in Chat" thing has always been inaccurate.

 

I always though it was the amount of people with the shoutbox visible on screen but that is just a guess from an IT-impaired individual.

 

There's usually 1-6 people in the shoutbox. The members in chat just means how many players are in the shoutbox / on the forum's homepage with all the subforums.

 

^ What Kapa said. I'm pretty sure 'Members in Chat' just means how many people can use shoutbox, not just people who have the shoutbox page open. Basically anyone who's viewing the forum list is probably considered 'in chat'

 

I think it's a bit buggy at the moment
