can you list joins in activity feed?
one thing i have noticed since i began running social networks is if the joins are listed in activity as soon as 1 joins 2 follow when 3 join 8 follow.. when 8 join can have up to 15 in a run all just by seeing active joins within the last minutes to hour
if the module had a include joins option in config that would be great if theres a way to edit something to include that what is it

Not natively, but we do have a custom module, developed for another user, that does this. It optionally 'listens' for signups and/or logins and adds them to the timeline.
Do you want to try it?

Have just put this module in a private channel and sent you an invite to it.
Note that this module was developed over a year ago and whilst it works, it may well benefit by bringing it in line with the latest Jamroom version.

i was going to say maybe it should be built into the user module
when i searched signups i got a signup notifications setting (i think in user module) for sending an admin email when ppl join if there was an add to actions (timeline0 setting in that module itself that would update it to this and all future versions

if i wasn't so busy right now with freedoms wings id put in some effort to finally learn php (more then a vague understanding of what some parts of some scripts do and how they work together)

but this is awesome thnx i'll let ya know if i find any problems

That did occur to me as well when developing the module, but this was just for one user (now two ;-) ) and we do have a policy of trying to keep JR modules simple!! But if there is more interest in this functionality, who knows.

So how does that work? Do casual visitors see signups in the timeline and think "Oh - Maybe I'll join as well"?

I take this as one of those things that you would never miss but really see the benefit of it if it was there.

exactly .. they see people joining and see its an active growing community and you will notice that if say 6 hours go by without a single join then you get 1 2 3 4 more will follow .. and as long as even 1 joins in the visible part of the activity feed it indeed does encourage others to join as well
its something i have always noticed
the other networks only had a hard limit on activity you couldn't page through them and anytime 1 join was visible more would follow
i'll try to see if i get the same results now and add the chart screenshot in like a week
