Title: Suspicious Guests?
Post by: Angela Christine on February 07, 2005, 07:19:04 AM
QuoteIn total there are 35 users online :: 2 Registered, 1 Hidden and 32 Guests   [ Administrator ]   [ Moderator ]

The number of guests has been high and creeping higher all night, while the number of registered users has been been low, as you would expect durring North America night times.  Are there really a bunch of guests who have suddenly found our little GDB irrisistable, or is something henky going on?

Well, it's probably not someone trying to breed kanks for honey.

The same thing happened last month, giving us a new GDB user count record.  My guess is that its a swarm of spambots or webcrawlers visiting the page.

Anonymous cowards lurking from the depths of the silt sea? :twisted:

Or everyone in America who had to wait in line at home for the toilet during halftime.  (Given that, the number is actually low, primarily because most of the men just went in the backyard.)

Lurkers.  Because most people shut up when they don't have anything to say.


The rest of us...well...eventually we'll claim...

I noticed it too, only when I looked it was 21 guests. Very odd, because I've never seen it more than 2-3 guests when reading the board. *shrug* And I have no explination to add here, just my imput that it was really weird.
