43 guests?
 

Um?

Re: 43 guests?
 

I knew posting that link on the IGN boards was a bad idea... :shakehead

Re: 43 guests?
 

It's not bad...just found weird. What'd you link to?

Re: 43 guests?
 

Well three of them are Ask Jeeves spiders. The rest of the IPs aren't saying anything.

Re: 43 guests?
 

I read quests instead of guests and I was confused. :)

Re: 43 guests?
 

Are you ready for your first quest? I cannot promise you'll survive all 43 but if you do the rewards are enormous.

Re: 43 guests?
 

I sense an internet story adventure that will begin majestically but fizzle out after five episodes with no explanation from its author.

Re: 43 guests?
 

yeah what exactly is with all the guests lately...

Re: 43 guests?
 

Hm...... 43 quests. I think we have a winner here!

Re: 43 guests?
 

No, we had the most users and guests on June 29th. Coincidentally, that was a day where I wasn't near a computer at all.

Re: 43 guests?
 

I said quests, not guests. You see, you fell for it too!

Re: 43 guests?
 

You know what I don't get?

At same time


On same day


But the days are different....

Re: 43 guests?
 

Come to think of it, yeah...you'd think they would be the same.

Re: 43 guests?
 

would it not be bad for some of them to sign up?

Re: 43 guests?
 

It can be an intimidating gamble. Most new-comers receive a lukewarm welcome and rarely receive full acceptance from the community before a year's time, at the least. That's why we're small. Less activity but stronger threads of friendship and brotherhood.

Re: 43 guests?
 

So which way is better? To have stronger bonds or more activity?

I prefer the smaller community. I've been to a couple of the larger message boards and it just doesn't interest me because a lot of what is said is meaningless and annoying. So I'm wasting my time sifting through that stuff to find the interesting things to read.

Re: 43 guests?
 

61...

Re: 43 guests?
 

The good majority of them are looking at archives.

They have to be spiders.

Re: 43 guests?
 

Don't they usually get listed as spiders though rather than just guests?

Re: 43 guests?
 

The Architect changed it so now we can't tell.

Re: 43 guests?
 

So you're conspirig that there's a group out there who likes to come on all at once randomly at night and read completely random topics. Ok. :sneaky:

I don't know if Neo mentioned or not, but we haven't upgraded vB in a while. Like, a long while, because of the hacks. So there very well could be new spider technology that this vB doesn't recognize.
