As of late, there have been tons of guest users online. I'm starting to get a little concerned something is wrong.

They are guest's. People who doesn't login. They are indeed many ( 20-70 guest's when I login)

Tey probably arent interested enoug to bother with logging. Nothing concerning.

I'm worried that they are bots trying to get in, but can't because of the password. Probably a long shot though.

Well if they can't there shouldn't be much problem, right?

Not until they get in. Which doesn't seem likely.

I think a lot of the time it's just regular members who aren't currently signed in, just checking things out.

Seems like a large number of them are trying to post when you look at what they are doing.

There's been 13 new members since last week. Most haven't posted at all. Not really an issue right now.

Maybe they are new members (or old) just checking out the topics or finding some help. Sometimes I check forums esp I am in without logging in it. So I think there is no issue with bots ( and registered bots are quite officials).Usually I would be logged in most of the time a day. I see nearly 20 to 50 on each hour.

A lot of guys love this game and variants.

That was me for a month because I had only played Age of world wars for a while.

That is because aos is the mother of all variants.
