Too many Guests?

Too many Guests?

Postby sonofotho » Sun Nov 04, 2012 7:27 pm

I have noticed something strange lately with the number of Guests we have. Lately the number has surged well beyond anything I have noticed before. And we recently blew away the previous max total for Users online.

I am no IT expert, but when I look and see where the Users are, there is always a group of 5-6 which are in the same forum. And it is any forum, even old PBPs that have been filed away.

Like I said I'm no IT guy, but could this be potential spammers? The main reason I bring it up (besides curiosity) is that today I received a few error messages when I tried to access the site. Thankfully after a few tries I was able to get any.

Anyway, just wanted to share this observation for whatever it may be worth....

I would think that it would be a spider for different search engines...crawling around to index data.

Have there been any new spammers since the security question? Ive seen some old spam accounts posting junk, but no new ones. Anyone?
