Will we hit 1 million pages views for the 6th straight month?

[AJ]

Just felt like it was time to give people another view of how active this site really is.

4000+ unique visitors each months
1.2 Million hits has been our lowest this year.

YOU GUYS FUCKING ROCK!

Our Current host likes to leave this fancy message when I log into the stats area:

This is why we thank the sponsors we have, they allow us to provide up to date support for those who help keep us afloat with all our increasing expenses.

What defines a unique visitor?

[TheBlizzard]

Its a medical condition.

[AJ]

What defines a unique visitor?

This equals a unique visit to the site by a specific IP address during a set time frame. The time period here is a month. But Jakey could be counted as a unique visit each time he signs in from somehwere with an IP address the log hasn't seen yet. Once an IP has been recorded 1 time, it's not duplicated till the log restarts, in this case it restarts at the beginning of each month.

[Jakey]

Is there any way to tell how many IPs a specific member has logged in under? Between my apartment, my office, and all the other random compuers on campus I use, I bet my number of IPs used is rather significant.

[AJ]

Right now no, I don't have a way to separate them. Considering the number of hits we take from "bots" , links from other sites, and search engines I don't see it has being that significant in the larger picture.

[NOT THE BLUE LAMPSHADE]

This site is bigger than anything in the world. It will consumer us all into a great DSM black hole that will engulf the universe.

[AJ]

We can only hope that you're the first one sucked in and it clogs the bitch of a hole of faster than Tom can run after a little boy.

signigicant.

Freudian slip? Racist.

Yah then maybe we won't have to listen to him anymore.

Thats kind of sweet though. I guess you never really think about how much one site gets hit.
