The pic explains the question

"You do not have appropriate permissions needed to see this topic" filled about 80% of the anonymous. found it strange so i posted

My internet was probably the reason but still it was strange

No, the reason is the bulk of those are search engine crawlers, and the topics are in places like The Silo, which is restricted access. (How the crawlers got in there, is another matter)

There are 10 members(s), 0 invisible members and 152 guest(s) visiting this board.

What about the times I've seen like 300-400 guests on at once? Are those just crawlers as well, or is that indicative of a botnet attack on the forum?

I would guess the bluk are crawlers.

Crawlers are peices of software that index the internet, search engines use them.

It's surely google bot and other crawlers indeed. The forum should neglect them in those stats, really.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Being able to read the Silo is the best perk of being a moderator. Razz
