Actually, Mike, that's not an uncommon number. We get 160+ on a regular basis.

 

As I posted in one of Rob Voska's threads, I saw 201 people on the blog a few days ago, which is the biggest number I've seen in a while.

I think "crusty old goat" is more accurate.  :D :tease:

I've always had, and still have, a hard time believing the guest figures shown. Right now Slotblog shows 99 guests, OWH shows 106 guests. Over 200 people reading two slot car boards at the same time? Or are the myriad of them people, like myself, who are always logged-on?

Russian bots trying to sway the Prof. Motor submission outcome.

 

We have to form two separate committees and an independent council to investigate this intrusion.

Do not do Facebook etc - still use a flip phone - it makes/receives phone calls - all I want it to do. (Also don't like touch screens in cars - prefer to drive, not play video games, to adjust temperature, etc.)

Several factors invoved here, Bill.

Yes, there are a lot of people who stay logged in a great deal of the time and they're shown in the members number.

The guest number, for both OWH and Slotblog, can include bots and search engine spiders that are indexing or searching the sites, even though I have it set so they shouldn't show in the list but that doesn't work 100%. It used to be a lot worse than it is now, because I discovered that one of the major Chinese search engines (Baidu) almost always had multiple connections much of the time so I have excluded the IP range that they originated from.

Greg, there's no need to thank me for driving traffic to your site. :sarcastic:
