    How many of those are actual posts and how many are reporting bot kills though?

    I don't know if our general membership is aware but we've had an insane spike in bots over the past couple of months. Shauna's our #1 bot crusher.

    Oh that's true. I had forgotten about that.

    Still though we've had spikes before and I've evaded the top spot.

    39 of your 58 posts this week have been automated bot ban posts. In exactly one hour 14 of those reports are about to drop off so enjoy your #1 spot while you still have it!

    My goofy imagination can't stop picturing Shauna violently fighting off waves of evil robots single-handed now.

    I'd like to know about that 5533 day of 12/29/15.

    Was that just like a Helm's Deep situation with thousands of bots storming the forums in an effort to wipe out the meatbags before the year was over?

    Yeah, something like that.

    I remember saying at the time "oh dang we haven't had this many members since 2006". But as I recall, for all of those lurking bots, there wasn't actually a huge influx of fake threads or members created.

    It was all window dressing.
