Who's online page showing unusually large amount of "Guest    XX:XX:XX XX    Logging into the forum.".  Is that normal?

Looks like there's no captcha requests when logging in.  I could've swore it was there before...
Trusted an exchange that climbed to the top 3 in just under 2 years with your money? you are fucking stupid.

A person can read content without logging in. They can't post or view trust though.

That's true, but Jhanzo is pointing out that it looks like a lot of those guests are trying to log into the forum, which could point to a brute force attempt at logging into someone's account.
