Any of you guys ever seen spoof guest users? I'm asking because I'm a member of nolimitimports.com which uses a vbulletin like this one, and last night at 4:00 AM a guest user was generating spoof guest accounts, and clocked over 70 false guest users. It may not be a big deal, but just figured I'd run it past you guys to see if you've ever seen or heard anything about that, and if it might be some troublemaker that might be a problem in the future.

Thanks guys, and keep up the good work.

EDIT: Its actually a phpBB board, but has the same general features.

EDIT II: It also got me thinking to the large number of guest users on this board, is there something that is causing the excessive number? Cause I don't believe there are always over 100 guests online :rolleyes: :) . Any information is appreciated, it'll put my mind to rest.

apparently we have a lot of fans that like to browse our forum.

we don't have guest accounts. You're either a registered user or you're not. Guests are no longer allowed to post.

Yea, I didn't mean he was posting as a guest, just that he had over 70 seperate IPs showing as different "guests". I know he wasn't able to post as a guest, but didn't know wtf was going on. Its ok, I know its nothing big, just threw me off.
