So the site just got a shitload of traffic from somewhere...

Anyone know who just refrenced us?

Maybe u want to install something like Google Analytics - or even parse your own server logs with something like AW stats or Webalizer...

Holy cow.

Ellay should be able to find who's "referring" us from the server logs.

Start advertising if the traffic gets too much :P or put a donate button on the front page ^^

This ^

Very easy to add into a site, and you could possible modify the forum code to even put the tags inside of individual posts.

i'm pretty sure that if you go to advanced search in google, you can type in a URL and it will show you what sites link to any certain site...

A web crawler has never had that effect before.

I didn't see any obvious major sites backlinking - It might be worth checking the server logs and see if there's any patterns there from the referrers.

Perhaps it was a half assed ddos, that was promised a few weeks ago.

No. It happened twice today. Firstly around 1000, then it dropped down to about 600, then back up to 1200. Weird. also the things that I saw some of them doing. Basically mostly "emailing" us. :-|

I have a macroed response that says, "Gone Multi-boxing! If we lose then you can blame me! If we win you can blame me! For more information visit Dual-boxing.com." I hit this when people start messing with me in WSG. But i don't think I could have caused those numbers! lol

sounds like a major spam bot invasion...

MY forums been having issues with that ever since the new batman movie... www.thedarkknights.com .... apparently the spammers love hitting me. Was getting 200 - 400 spam posts on the blog and the forums a day for a while there, eventually I banned enough IP's and domains...
