Wasn't the record for the most online users up to like 49 at one time? Now it's down to 23, or something like that.

47, and the database got reseted

reset. . . .not reseted.

ToMacco, the new english teacher?

About the online users, I reset it myself.

Why is that???

Just to piss you off, Lance. Did it work?

Because it wasn't 'accurate'. No-one here remembers being here when that record was broken.

Q: if you open a link on the forum in a new browser, does that count as a new member? 'cause that will explain things

Nope, the forum checks for browser versions, cookies and IP addresses to determine if its a new user or the same one.

I guess it could be beaten if you worked at it but who the heck would bother?

36? who was on?

They were Google 'bots'.

what is that?

Google (http://www.google.com) sends out bots (robots) to find sites to put in its search engine.

On that day it send 36 different bots to this forum, going through all 180,000+ posts.

They're at it again! This time, AltaVistas 'bots have joined in!

Its a seige!

how do you know that?
oh, and this time there were 11 members

I have secret powers

oh...those

will you reset it again now?

Prolly.

Googlebots and AltaVistabots. What's next, AOL Keywordbots?

and what about yahoo?

Yahoo's index is ALL created by humans.

That 51 we currently have is faux, yeah?

Probably...

Yes. Resetting now.

just 17?

I don't get why you should reset it!

so we should not live in lie.
So profound.

everyone can get those bots on a site

yea but has no point now does it, I agree with dexx
try not to live a lie tho it ain't easy

Looks like we had more bots.

I just can't be bothered resetting it everyweek...

every two weeks then?

How about Raz puts a big message saying that it's a big lie? Then his nose won't be so long.

Perhaps we should just dump the 'most ever' counter?

yea it ain't accurant anywayz
