I noticed all the forum History has been reset, which gives us a nice veiw of some monthly and daily stats.

However... how in the world can 300 people be online at once (which happened 2 days ago, apparently)? Theres only 650 odd members, and guests aint THAT common surely :P

Or am I reading these wrong?  :-[

My best guess: these are web spiders, like GoogleBot, MSN Search and the like. Graham basically set up the whole forum again with the new template, changing all files, which means it's a feast for the bots to index all theads again. ;)
