My tools wouldn't make 763 bots, more like 2,000+ :problem:

But yea guys, that is due to DDoS. A weak one too. No worries though :P

That's 1am in Australia so it would be around mid day in most parts of america I'm assuming.

It was just a bug in the forum software that caused an erroneous (grossly inflated) maximum number of users online. Throughout the day in question (2013-08-26), there were a total of 181 visits which came from 68 unique visitors, which is typical for this site's traffic.

The webserver's load, # of running processes, memory usage, network throughput, etc. showed nothing to indicate a DDoS of any size. The servers hosting this site do have some protections against DDoS attacks, and can survive a small to medium size DDoS with no negative impact.

I reset the "most users ever online" to get rid of that erroneous statistic. We're back up to 20 as the most users online as of this reply.

I've reset the statistic to get rid of it.
