Right now (Friday 6/6/2025 6:45 p.m. Eastern) the stats show 46 members and 13,700 "guests". I can't believe there'd be that many guests at one time. I would be surprised if there were 1,000 people total on here at any one time. I don't always log in, but even if 9 out of 10 "real" users weren't logged in, that wouldn't equate to 1,000 users at once. Could it be tied to cookies or trackers or other elements that cause the site to see users as still here after they navigate away? Supposedly many people pay zero attention to clearing their cookies or history and don't use any kind of ad blocking or anti-tracking capabilities.

Been down for almost 24hrs, although it looks like it's working for all of 5 minutes again.
See you guys in another day or so!

Yes, that’s the way it seems!
I have only been able to get on about once every 22 hours. There’s something going around virus wise on other sites also. Another site I go to when I try to get on reply’s back with “ To many requests “ and then when I do get on the site runs slow just like this one. Sometimes even once I am on that site I get that crazy reply again.

Crashes
When a website “ crashes “ or can’t
be reached - usually it means the server or host has more requests than can be accommodated. I have had the same host for my website since 2006 - it crashes maybe once a year because there is enough user storage to accommodate requests. Jim

Just got through and the response is very fast!
Wouldn't it be great if the web host found some software to reject the bots? I'm optimistic based on this: |

The number of 'Guests' is climbing quickly and every few seconds if I refresh the page the number is a few higher. They should just disable Guest access altogether. Get a login or you don't get access doesn't seem unreasonable and some other sites are set up like that.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
