Why was there 199 people on modified on that particular day. If we were as a community to decide on a date could we beat it?

ive always wondered why there where that many people on, i think it could be possible to beat.

modified was getting a lot of attention from spam bots back then, and I believe that a lot of those visitors were bogus. either that, or that was when modified was attacked by some weird hacker organization (I don't *think* i'm just making that up... vague recollection...)

MATTHEW, COULD YOU PLEASE CLARIFY THE MEANING OF THE PHRASE "SPAM BOTS" ? I KNOW IM IN ALL CAPPS BY THE WAY.

Computer programs that pretend to be users and then post links to supposed videos of celebrities having sex and the like.

Yeah, that was weird when you came to modified.ca and it said "You've been hacked by PolesmokeZ Group"

or something similar

Everyone just leave modified up when you leave your computer.

the user count only reflects those users who have been active in the last 5 minutes.

It doesn't count if you're logged in, and the page is open?

I reckon everyone should band together to beat it lol. It'd be fun.

Somehow "we" beat it again. And by we I mean a handful of actual footbaggers and a whole heck of a lot of bots

Most users ever online was 259 on Sat Jul 14, 2007 3:16 pm

We beat it by a whole 60 users, about 30%.
