Yay! /Poms

Look at who's online, and you see a new record has been set, and I quote:

"Most users ever online was 485, Yesterday at 11:13 PM. "

I'm guessing a lot of spiders at that stage, but I've not seen much more than say 30 members and 40 spiders at any one time?! Hell of a jump!

Sometimes the Yahoo spider gets carried away a bit :)

I create a bots.txt to exclude all spiders from accessing rate_cgi.php

So basicly you place the bots.txt in the root of your site
(so it would be accessible as http://www.clubvr4.com/bots.txt). then edit the contents as follows

User-agent: *
Disallow: /<yourpath>/rate_cgi.php

Make sure that <yourpath is set to any sub directories that you have your forums under in your site.
If rate_cgi.php is in the root, just put /rate_cgi.php
This should solve the problem.


Is there anything else that needs fixing?

Now up to 545, yesterday.

They seem to be getting busier!
