RPF Getting Massive Traffic Right Now

[r3volution 3.0]

I just noticed a huge increase in traffic in the last couple minutes.

We're at about 92% of the all time high for users online.

Most I've seen in months....

Did something just happen? Some big news story about Rand that I missed? Or what?

Any thoughts?

DDS? Sites slow as hell for me right now.

Starting new (guest) sessions without expiring the old ones.

Ditto, and it started just as I noticed there were like 500 people viewing a subforum that normally has a couple dozen (!)

Hence, the traffic appears to be real (i.e. not a glitch with the ticker).

Just in case, I'm gonna go bump some activism threads.

....make hay while the sun's shining.

Probably google bots or something. I can't see why anyone would ddos RPF.

It just happened again...

We went from a couple hundred users to over 4k in a matter of minutes, for no apparent reason.

And earlier today, the site was down completely for about 15 minutes.

A glitch or someone in another campaign is playing a trick?

Was there any advertising or email that went out yesterday/today that linked directly to RPF?

Been putting up links to the constitution day mb thread from social media so others that aren't forum members currently can check it out, started a group on FB of about 100 trusted supporters that are activists, interested in the MB with the main planning link going here. That's all I know.
