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....
