AOL has this "security" feature that their members use. Users are routed through proxies.... A LOT of them. Since the forum remembers the last visitors in the past 15 minutes each proxy is registered. The forum thinks they are all unique. I can reset this value, but it will happen again.

I found a foreign web spider crawling the site which most likely contributed to the anomaly. I banned it and reset the counter. 12 is little more realistic, although if your predictions are right Irate, 64 will be soon enough.

I stand by that prediction. This forum was long overdue, and time will reward the wisdom of its creators.

I'm impressed again, there were 243 users on this board at 12:47 p.m. today. Ha!

What can I say? The forum is the hit thing. I'll have to look closely to see what caused all of this.


Looks like good timing. We got hit by a search engine which apparently makes A LOT of connections and some russian spam bots attempting to spam.
