CharlotteTheHarlot Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) I see a difference in the Board Statistics that are seen on the bottom of the page loaded from this URL ...http://www.msfn.org/board/I just happened to have a couple of saved versions of that page from December and somehow the board has lost some numbers!MSFN Board Statistics ---------- 2012-12-21 ----------Total Posts ............. 924,257Total Members ........... 103,099Newest Member ........... galeksandr Online At Once Record ... 23,998 ... 15 April 2011 - 04:31 AM---------- 2012-12-24 ----------Total Posts ............. 924,705Total Members ........... 103,362Newest Member ........... insutsbix Online At Once Record ... 23,998 ... 15 April 2011 - 04:31 AM---------- 2013-02-03 ----------Total Posts ............. 918,397Total Members ............ 98,117Newest Member ........... bart Online At Once Record ... 10,218 ... 22 January 2013 - 03:22 PMPerhaps the software upgrade purged some records? Or maybe the New Year is involved and the stats reset each year? Strange!EDIT: found another earlier copy of the page Edited February 3, 2013 by CharlotteTheHarlot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submix8c Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I believe there MIGHT have been a "Spambot" purge. I also checked about the "outage" and found that it MIGHT have had something (the outage) to do with "Disk Full" or something.FWIW, I had noted that "Record" several days ago (before the "down" period).Hmm... maybe the SQL DB got "reorg'ed" and/or "cleaned up" to "fix" some busted stuff (the "other" error that occurred).

Tripredacus Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 All the spammers accounts got deleted. Those users and posts stop being counted in those numbers. But some of those posts still exist. Here is a thread created by a spammer who got deleted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlotteTheHarlot Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 All the spammers accounts got deleted. Those users and posts stop being counted in those numbers. But some of those posts still exist. Here is a thread created by a spammer who got deleted:That's quite a purge, larger than anything I ever saw. Looks like at least 6,000 accounts and 8,000 posts!One thing though, that Online At Once Record shouldn't be related to it, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I think the post difference is due to the "trash being emptied" when Xper came in to fix that spam issue. I'm not sure how the "online at once record" works with the forum internals. Anyways, I think those records really don't mean anything anymore. They used to be some cool stat, but most forums' records now show a period of spamming or some DoS attack. For example, the online at once record at reboot.pro is from one of those types of attacks.
