    Question Curiosity - Any significance on 5/6/06 @ 3:48am??

    I was just "hanging out" on the sight today and it always caught my attention that "The most users ever online was 274, 05/06/2006 at 03:48 AM." Was it just a helluva night or what was the significance on that very early morning and time??? Once again, Curiosity.....

    IIRC...that was when the site had been down for a bit, due to a malicious cyber attack, & the subsequent repairs/upgrades.
    When the Boss got er back up & runnin', we were all there waiting..

    ........

    The withdrawls were quite bad...

    I've wondered that same thing! Was it a just ton of web spiders?

    Nope, some little punk had some unkind words for Moncha,(VX ugly, POS,...yadda-yadda-ya...) the Boss was willing to agree to disagree, but spoiled little turd boy decided to kick it up a notch, & retaliated by hacking the site...

    This is all from the very sketchy memory of yours truly, so if anyone remembers it different, please put your two cents in below...

    LOL... I'd always wondered about it too... my theory had been that since it was May, it was like a day or few before the Moab trip and that many were logged on at once for a last hurrah before leaving for Utah, OR that it was during Moab and it was a combo of people at home and people at Moab all logged on at once sharing/bragging stories. Just my theory tho... so go ahead... make fun of it... lol

    We sit together, my VX and I, until only the VX remains.

    Now that I've had some sleep, this might have been a scheduled upgrade when the site was down, & we all had a rough estimate of when it would be back up.

    The other incident happened, but it was before the site upgrade, and was also a contributing factor in the Boss's decision to upgrade the functionality/security of our Home sweet Home...
