1) Keep all discussion of a single topic under the same thread: When you reply to a message, it gets sent back to the top of the forum. Please do not start a new topic every time you have something to say about it-- "reply" to the original message to keep things organized. Start a new topic only when discussing something completely unrelated to your previous post.

2) Give as much information as possible: For example, if you have a question about a specific game, please mention the title of this game! Also please post any steps that you have already tried to solve your problem. Post your system specifications (CPU, RAM, video card, Operating System, method of connecting to internet) if they are at all relevant. Here is a nice program that lists all your comp hardware and software. Great for troubleshooting and for gathering info to give when receiving tech help.

3) Please write clearly: Please try to use paragraphs, real words and proper sentence structure so that people can actually understand your message. Try reading your post back to yourself to ensure it makes sense. If your post is only a few words long, it probably doesn't contain enough information to make sense to anyone but yourself.


There are a lot of knowledgeable people who read this forum, and they can often help you with your problem, or at least point you in the right direction. We make no guarantees but we do our best to help. It might take a while to get a reply so please be patient.

Thanks!

    Probably inflates their numbers so they look better to advertisers.

    Yeah google does not filter those bots. I remember when Apex was doing Google ads I saw the same IPs in there as I was seeing here - google is totally tracking all those bots as traffic and most google traffic, at least ours, was all bots
  • The Helper The Helper:

    Weekend went by too fast. Next weekend I am going to try to do a nature thing - buddy of mine lives by the Colorado river and has some kayaks and invited me to do some kayaking from a place he knows to get on the river.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    That sounds like an adventure.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    400 users all online all looking at latest content
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I wonder how all these bots that sit on the lastest content page get passed anubis or maybe they did not but they are just registering on whos online
  • The Helper The Helper:
    showing up on whos online not registration
  • Ghan Ghan:
    The first gate is stopping all the bots that don't execute javascript.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    That's the main thing with Anubis - no Javascript, no site. Typically you can still get the site to load without Javascript.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I remember the whole javascript thing, question - how many real people disable that?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Hell I guess I could go back on the stats to know that - we probably capture that and we know the before and after
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Real users can't really disable Javascript anymore these days.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    The internet is broken without it.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Bot readable, not human usable.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    got it
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Happy Thursday!
