Ah, it must have been my doing, as I'd recently added the BC banner to my website! *jokes-* because I get ooooh so much traffic on my pages you see! *gets coat*

OK, mystery might be solved - looks like we're getting hit by a search engine of some kind. Most of the "members" are guests who haven't logged in.

Ask whoever is hosting the site whether they are concerned about a possible denial of service attack and see what they say....

Maybe it was all the European members of TB who are sick of hearing about GC and how to get a MB head.

GC..?

Guitar Center.

Every MB thread on TB has a run of "which GC stocks them?" and then "what's the warranty situation?" etc etc.
It got quite boring for a while as, for a change, we can get hold of the whole range without too much trouble.
