Over half of those (probably a lot more) are

bots ... web scrapers ... info gatherers and such ...

I highly doubt we have that many "real" people ...

Having said that, that was my main reason for "suggesting"
we spell our words with "numbers" for certain letters, so
they wouldn't pick up and report back to the search engines
the correct name of a product. They still collect it, but no one
searches for that combo AND neither does L3 ...

If we could make each section "password" protected section
(put the username/password in the heading of each section)
the bots wouldn't be able (yet) to copy/paste the credentials in
to gain access ... While still allowing our Flesh-N-Blood members to
have entry...

Maybe that would slow their roll a might ...
