I notice that, at the moment, there are over 7,000 non members viewing this forum. I never pay too much attention to this statistic, but it is rarely as high as this. Is there something in the air that we should know about?

"There are currently 6199 users online. 763 members and 5436 guestsMost users ever online was 45,594, 14-01-2020 at 08:59 AM."

I was thinking maybe a ddos attack of some sort... or maybe just a malfunctioning server.

As I said, its based on a time period. Its not instant - that would rely on people logging out.
Its all subjective - how long does inactivity count before a user is no longer browsing the forum? 30 seconds? 5 minutes? 30 minutes?
Users have been known to be playing the arcade for significantly longer
