You might have noticed that PnP is maintaining between 60-100 guests at all times.

These are [ro]bots, nothing to be worried about though. Some appear to be "Friendly" bots, they come from MSN, Yahoo, Google, AOL, and the like, view and index the page, and make it so its easier to find Politics and Prose on those sites when you search for it.

Others are spambots, which I've been told are now posting on some forums as guests. As PnP does not allow guest posting anywhere (we have a few steps of registration that weeds out bots) they are apparently just hanging about, screwing up with the member count numbers.

Just thought you should all know.

Whoa, just noticed that. That's crazy. :blink:
