I'm really tempted to continue The Escape from Octo Valley at this point, it's an RP that's so close to the end. And it managed to be one of the longest RPs on the site, despite having a clear end to it.

Can someone please explain who the 335 guests using Squidboards are?

Yeaah it be a lot of reasons from innocent data-scraping for archival/historical purposes (think wayback machine type things) or maybe scraping data for AI training. They might also be low-quality spambots looking for any form where they can submit their spam, or (most insidiously) poking around the pages' code looking for exploitable security vulnerabilities. But we really have no way of knowing.

That said admin consoles of most forum software will allow those with permission to see the IP address of the guests. but it's often useless information because most shady folks are using proxies/botnets. But every so often you'll find that like 90% of your 'guests' are from one city in taiwan or something. (Disclaimer I haven't run active forums in like a decade and my knowledge might be outdated)

hate to burst your bubble but i don't think this is real, don't know why a channel would need people to shut it off when the government or network executives can just shut off the channel themselves
