Well, for us newbies this mod is very useful, along with the "Members that visited in the last 24 hours" mod.

When a site doesn't look very active, no one wants to register. When they see its active, they want to register.

My forum went live about 3 weeks ago and I only have about 5,000 members so far, this mod is still very useful because during the night hours, not many people are online, only about 130. If I add 200 fake guests that makes my site look a bit busier.

Plus, there aren't any ads whatsoever on my site and that makes it look a bit empty.

if you CANNOT get it to work in 3.8.4 then do this instead:

edit styles & templates -) FORUMHOME
find this code and ADD some fake numbers in like i did here:
<div>
$vbphrase[threads]: 2,7$totalthreads,
$vbphrase[posts]: 4,6$totalposts,
$vbphrase[members]: 23,0$numbermembers<if condition="$show['activemembers']">,
<span title="<phrase 1="$vboptions[activememberdays]">$vbphrase[within_the_last_x_days]</phrase>">$vbphrase[active_members]: $activemembers</span>
</if>

works just as well

UPDATE:
chop off a few commas it looks better:

<div>
$vbphrase[threads]: 2,7$totalthreads
$vbphrase[posts]: 4,6$totalposts
$vbphrase[members]: 23,0$numbermembers<if condition="$show['activemembers']">,
<span title="<phrase 1="$vboptions[activememberdays]">$vbphrase[within_the_last_x_days]</phrase>">$vbphrase[active_members]: $activemembers</span>
</if>

For this there is a dedicated plugin!

..perhaps it has something do do with the custom theme i am using, 'tigra' .
