Aww man! I wanted to create a thread to ask about that since it bothered me. ;)
Just kidding, did some researches and only found this:

The same question asked ... 3 years ago. ;)
I looked at my Timeline: No special update or so.
I looked on Facebook: Nothing special.
Well would be cool if we could search threads and posts by it's date but we can't. Time to do some sport with scrolling down 1000's of threads I say!
The highest number of online users in the past weeks was almost 5k, though.
P.S.: I see myself online on the list! ;)
Hey I see me and its prob the announcement of PLs first event (Halloween) first ever
Announcing Halloween in July? OoQuote:

Nothing world-shattering actually.
I got two hypotheses:
1. The EC2 servers went down on that day
2. It was a stress test to see how many members the forums could handle before it shut down. Going by today's events, I have to go with #2 because the most likely answer.
Yeah #2 is more likely, they would have announced that maintenance like today.Quote:

5,8 now!
Honestly, it was a bug with an older version of the chat box where crawler bots (like search engines and more nefarious web crawlers) got stuck in the chat box archives and after a couple of days without noticing, there were thousands and thousands of bots connected to the forums, trying over and over again to crawl through that archive.
I should probably nuke that number/date, but hey, there are probably better things to be done :).
Ohhh! Interesting to know that. Thanks. :)Quote:

I didn't intend to bring this message from long ago but I found it interesting that the old record was shattered earlier today....
