If you open developer mode on XenForo there are Cron options.

When users validate their Email on my gaming clans website, this happens when they are on the homepage. I think it’s one of those things that makes a forum stand out amongst others. The counter you are seeing is blocked traffic from regions that do not primarily speak English. My theme is...
