The spiders refer to search engines "crawlers" that are indexing the content on the site. At one point we were in double digits (I think 15 or 16). I posted a link to the National Title thread on twitter and it brought some traffic to the site. For some reason it always bring a lot of spiders when I post a link on twitter.

Spiders aren't always good. The crawlers for the Big G are good, but they can also be harvesters that search for email addresses or phone numbers. They're shady business, but they still show up as spiders.

There's something just downright dark and malicious about spiders.

They need to be exterminated off the face of the earth.

Now.
