Lynden Report post Posted May 20, 2012 (edited) Well I clicked on it to check and you have 661 - it's probably a bot or something as you can see your latest visitors at the side of your profile. Plus of course every time you refresh yourself the counter goes up. Otherwise I have no idea! Â Although at the bottom it says 'users reading this topic, Lynden, Facebook'. Might be something to do with Facebook? Edited May 20, 2012 by Lynden Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris54 Report post Posted May 20, 2012 Probably can't believe what they see so keep checking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris P Report post Posted May 20, 2012 Only 48 views - I must be very dull! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shnoing Report post Posted May 20, 2012 Plus of course every time you refresh yourself the counter goes up. Otherwise I have no idea! I don't think the counter goes up when you visit yourself - I've looked at my profile more often that I've got "visits". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A-S warrior Report post Posted May 20, 2012 i might pm an administrator, see whats going on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkshine Report post Posted May 20, 2012 That's weird - have you got the settings set so that you can see the last 5? (not that it would help you work out the other 600 odd people). Â It would concern me if mine shot up like that - its a big jump from 137! I'd say ask a mod or admin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A-S warrior Report post Posted May 20, 2012 ive sent lufty a pm. lets see if he can figure this out. ive had about 400 visits in 2 days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkshine Report post Posted May 20, 2012 Let us know if you find anything out - it does seem very odd! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A-S warrior Report post Posted May 20, 2012 (edited) lufty has pretty much confimed it, its more than likely a spam bot or a dos attack. just in case its somebody on this forum out to get me, i will find you, get your ip address and ruin you. i,ll make sure you never step onto another forum again, im not a guy to do it too. just because i have a-s doesnt mean im an easy target, i,ll take you down and f*** you . i can turn very nasty.

darkshine Report post Posted May 21, 2012 So did you check who made the last 5 views? And did that show anything weird? Not good that you have been targeted in this way!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkshine Report post Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) Mine was 557 a day and a half ago and it is now 690 but there's only 2 people showing on my list... Edited May 21, 2012 by darkshine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tally Report post Posted May 21, 2012 If you've got suspicions about a member you need to PM Lufty with it, as he is the one with access to the information he needs to deal with it. IP addresses are not given out to members so you can't deal with this on your own. Posting publicly is not acceptable and you don't know whether the person you mentioned has even done anything wrong. This member appears to be a newly registered member who has not yet had their account validated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â posted lufty, i will mention that the profile has existed for at least 2 weeks, and has never signed out. and ive been keeping a close eye today and the profile has been viewing the same member all day, and within 2 hours dialed up over 100 views. but i apologise if ive caused you any trouble tally, im just trying to make everybody aware.

A-S warrior Report post Posted May 22, 2012 well i thank the spamer for the views, it makes me look more popular to the new members, but i wont lie it was giving me the creeps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkshine Report post Posted May 22, 2012 to the first part!! Â And totally agree with the creepy comment! It just makes me wonder why - what is the point in it? Why just sit viewing someone all day? If it was a bot doing it automatically then its sort of less creepy - but if it was a person its well creepy cuz this forum doesn't refresh on any computer I've used to they'd actually have to sit there clicking refresh all day and night Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darkshine Report post Posted May 23, 2012 Hmm, a password change might be a good idea - is it instant on here or do you have to wait for lufty or someone to approve it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
