Anyone else notice that we are having more bots online than actual people?

Perhaps more accurate to say less people than bots.

I would offer free beer and porn to all visitors but it might attract the wrong crowd. :mrgreen:

You can't stop the amount of bots from visiting unless you turn the forum private and even then some of them might find a way in... <_< Also define bots? I have seen no spammers advertising junk on here so you must be talking about the web crawlers?

Suppose you can counts us lurkers as bots... :P

It would be correct to say fewer rather than less...unless said people have been processed such that they now form continuous rather than discrete amounts. The aliens may prefer to consume their meals as spiders do.
