[NSC] Why are ther over 10,000 viewing NSC right now? ???

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

The numbers aren't right - I've got no idea where the software is plucking them from.

Ah. And there is the answer. Knavish tricks.....how very 2019

I have a theory that BG opens up a new tab each time he posts? Could that do it?

I thought it was a relatively simple exercise to to list (by country) the numbers logged onto your website at any one time.

 

[Chicken Run]

Seriously. WTAF?

I have noticed recently there are always thousands viewing. They can't all be Ali J fans with baited breath. Shirley?

Edit 'there' . There there. FFS

It’s the 9,999 other functioning alcoholic’s keeping an eye on you?

 

[OzMike]

I too was wondering the same, especially when us antipodeans are posting late into your night.

How many actual registered members does NSC have ?

 

[cloud]

24,748
But the vast majority of these 12,000 are 'guests'.
Possibly Russian bots who think we are the National Security Council.

 

[Me and my Monkey]

Excuse my ignorance, but what does a "bot" do, and why? And why, really, would it want to take a look at NSC?

 

[Frutos]

How many actual registered members does NSC have ?

Four.

All the others are Bozza under various pseudonyms.

Our Graham leaving and Jones to take over?

Bot armies. 99.9% are in read mode, only 1 or 2 of the bots are currently configured to post.

Certainly straight forward if you use Google Analytics

 

[Sussex Nomad]

Lovely bots, especially on Brighton beach.

 

[Hillian1]

I should imagine that most of the people viewing are waiting for another of my excellent threads.

"BotArmy, BotArmy!"

What sort of things would a bot post though? Would it be like a Chinese government bot countering a claim that Tibet is an occupied country?

Diane Abbott compiling them ?

I think you will find that the correct term is "bated breath", old chap.
It's an abbreviated form of abated.

 

[Megazone]

Can't we unite and fight these bots off together?

I'll start- Go away. shooo, go, go somewhere else, get lost. If you're not going to contribute anything to the board then can you try to be a bit more unnoticeable please?
