So true. XD

So apparently the most users ever (255 of them) were online on March 18, 2011. Does anyone remember what happened to get so many posters at once?

I hope that wasn't the first day bots discovered the forums and flooded them with nonsense.

I think you should read the first, like, 4 posts of this topic

I do It was a bunch of spambots, and then a bunch of 'guests' viewing the profiles of the spambots.

Oh. That's kinda disappointing actually. Thanks for the info though.
Don't we have, like, three anti-bot measures now? I didn't know there were so many different types.

But I also hope that the 200,000 post mark isn't far away!

The first 100000 only took three and a half years after all...

Actually, I think it's over 95%. Most of the off-topic section is just random babblings, and Forum Games is spam per def. The extraordinary ability of NSM to turn any conversation off topic is very notable everywhere else.

Then there's about 3% of commentaries or replies to other people's work (stories, art, arrangements), a percent or so of requests, and a percent or so of posts worth reading (such as submission posts).
