MICROWAVE Posted October 17, 2004 CID Share Posted October 17, 2004 SnackySmores.tk....lol Hmmmm I have said the same thing to myself before.....apparently we both have way to much time on our hands to look and wonder what others are doing......hehe but yes thats what they are doing is "browsing" through the site and reading post and checking out things(like us) some months back CA3LE GUY sent me an email as to the amount of time I spend "browsing" the site and I was kinda surprised at how often and how much I visit....but it sure is fun:) so I guess this is a point to ponder as they say.....lol have fun:) Microwave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTB Posted October 17, 2004 CID Share Posted October 17, 2004 Cuz they're even slower than me They just read, that's all, until they run into a problem, or get upgraded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stank_Ho Posted October 17, 2004 CID Share Posted October 17, 2004 I've had this creepy feeling for awhile now....that I'm being watched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unstable Posted October 17, 2004 CID Share Posted October 17, 2004 one explanation may be the "automatically log me in" option. I don't leave it checked, so when I come to the board I am on as a guest until I decide to post once. Then I'm shown as being on...but if I leave and come back, I show up as a guest again.

MICROWAVE Posted October 17, 2004 CID Share Posted October 17, 2004 I've had this creepy feeling for awhile now....that I'm being watched. Well of course you are, (isn't everyone)by some very unsavory people, so you may want to be careful and watch your back...... LOL.. But I do wonder whose watching the people that are watching us?

Swimmer Posted October 17, 2004 CID Share Posted October 17, 2004 Here is what CA3LE told me a while about guests.. Search engines send out spiders to map new parts of sites.. so like 10-15 could be that.. mapping the new posts and the changes he has made to his site... The other could just be people looking at the site in general... There are normally 100 or so people testing.. so they come in here and look at the scores to see what they compair to and how to make it faster...

Cobra Posted October 18, 2004 Author CID Share Posted October 18, 2004 hmm i didnt know spiders counted as guests... lol i think the auto log in is probably a good explanation cuz sometimes ill be the only one logged in with like 30 guests then ill post and two minutes later someones logged in and replied... happens all the time; its freaky. and lol swimmer 8 posts from now ull have 1000 posts! for hes a jolly good poster for hes a jolly good poster and blah blah blah blah blah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmer Posted October 18, 2004 CID Share Posted October 18, 2004 yeah that is a possibility... I was told that in an eariler version of this site... That was long ago before you joined.. This verison of the forum might find the spiders and not count them.. I dont know 30 guests doesnt seem unresonable to me.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
