Speaks for itself....

You fed them data bits... actually most of the time (not always) but when you see really high guest counts like that you can expect a good portion of them to be SPAM bots trying to register on the forums so they can hock their wares/pills/crap.

 

For example, in January (Up until 8am Mountain Time (GMT-7) Tues, Jan 8th) one of my antispam plugins has already stopped 268 Bots from registering, I've banned at least 4 or 5 that got through the gates, and the built in board spam protection may have stopped some as well (it doesn't seem to keep stats).

 

November, which I think we were up and running for 2 weeks....694 Spammers blocked... December is missing for some reason, but if you look at the total of spammers blocked on the front page (2814Spammers Stopped as of this reading) that means that December had 1852 Spammers blocked....
