Was there really over 11k users online at one point
 

?

Like in the whole world or?

Wow that's more people than the average BB19 episode :flutter:

Corin's eviction did that.

I’ve seen this stat before but where is it again?

People excited to finally see her go

I thought it was the CBB spiedi season that did that

Don’t come for Corin

it said BB16

Chloe becoming the best C5 BB winner (at the time) did that!

Eileen did that!

Not from 11K to 11 :worry:

i've recently seen somewhere in the 60 or slightly more members on here

i can remember that very well, it was the sunday before i went on holiday and i was quite surprised about that


11k users online also isn't very good for a forum (loads of forum crashes) i think what we have now around 40 to 60 online is quite good, also for the forum health

Most users ever online was 11671, 26-01-2016 at 02:16 PM.

Such a weird time

Was somebody ejected or somethhing?

probably loads of forum crashes too around that time :joker:

That was around the time Gillian McKieth visited the house and christopher Maloney was evicted... but it was a pretty uneventful time in the house :think: so weird.

Gillian McKeith her poo impact?

Nothing significant in SD either.. I’m guessing some sort of glitch or lie

Does anybody know where it says this because I definitely knew it and now I can’t find where I saw it anymore :worry:

who's online :p

The real answer here guys is that vBulletin counts guests as users for this stat and counts Google crawlers and bots as individual IP's and thus "people".

In other words the figure is meaningless.

yeah TiBB Coach Trip did bring the site a bit of traction

Ah I see it now :hugesmile:

Thank you

Yup. From estimation we usually have like..4x the amount of bots than members online. So maybe if this was cut to like..2k or something it might be more accurate.

Edit..currently '23 members and 99 guests' which adds about right to what I said.

If I remember rightly the 11000 was when were being visited by a lot of bots one time. There have been other occasions when we genuinely have had 1000s of users visiting the site - usually on the Big Brother launch night.
