I'm working on the backup, it will be there soon. As for the huge amount of guests, most of the times it's someone trying to download the whole content of this forum. Also most of the times these downloaders hit the anti Denial Of Service brick wall of the DMT-Nexus at a certain point...

Geeze, I guess if I had waited a few seconds before starting a thread about weird stats I would have had my question answered! Avatar art created by unknown Cambodian or Laotian. Everything else is fiction.

Stats of April 2009: Code:
Month Visitors Page Views Bandwidth (KB) Google Ads income (USD)
----- -------- ---------- -------------- -----------------------
2009 April (*) 42,101 332,593 157,045,355 45,33
(*) April was only logged for the last 18 days due to logfile changes.
In April I changed the way the logfiles are created so it won't clog up the hard disk with one big file. Due to this change only the last 18 days of April were logged. So the only thing to really say something about is the Google Ads income that increased again, I'm really happy about that fact and hope it will continue to increase. Kind regards, The Traveler

Is the income based on clicks? Thread views? Visitors? I'd gladly click a link every thread if it helped out. DeadLizard wrote:Darkbb wrote:BTW wheres the "Donate" button traveler?

The Traveler, do you have any idea where the download attempts are coming from? Have you checked their IP and snooped around? If you have not, I would be very interested in the actual IPs of these bastards. Great to see the Google Ad incomes are increasing! I am clicking on some of them now and then, that's my way of donating.

Google got quite a system figuring out dishonest clicks. So I would be careful. I also hate to break it to you traveler, but google doesn't allow "drug related" sites, so you're just lucky at the moment to still have your account online.

The Google Ads income is based on clicking on the ads, but please only click an ad if it really interest you or else Google can revoke the account for suspicious click-behavior. And about the drug related content, this site is all about the different aspects of hyperspace and the impact on our society, not drugs. And yes, I know the IP's of the download attempts, they are logged when they are kicked from the server for too many download attempt in a short time. Some are from China, others from Romania and the USA.

I wasn't aware that Google had a good system in figuring out dishonest clicks, thank you for bringing that to my attention. I will not click unless really interested.

Trav, I black-holed all of china from my web server due to that crap years ago. NK is also a problem child for me. I used to run webalizer, but gave up on it as I really didnt care about stats.

I just stumbled upon an ad: The truth about LSD - drugfreeworld.org . I'm not sure if the nexus should advertise anti-drug propaganda. On the other side, it's pretty funny to think of an anti-psychedelic site financing a pro-psychedelic site.
