Wow, nearly 10,000 members...

[Twilight Wolf]

Yep, we're now seven members away from having 10,000. It's pretty amazing, isn't it? It's a shame 99% of them are bots... They're probably eating up some bandwidth, too. Thus the purpose of this topic: Is there any way we can, you know, get rid of the bots? If we can't prevent them from signing up, I propose that, if possible, we delete them. Here's my idea: if any given member has been registered for three months or longer and have made a grand total of zero posts from their date of registration, they're disposed of. If it's a legitimate member who might have registered, forgot about the site, and decided to come back, they can always re-register.

This is my opinion. What do you think should be done?

[Gamefreak]

I can't single out people who have less than X number of posts.

The only ones I can single out are the ones who haven't posted in 30 days.

Set up a blanket banning of 'members' with emails ending in common bot emails.

[Gamefreak]

I did that a long time ago.  All the .ru's and everything else.  It's a no go.

[Zelda Veteran]

Well, the thirty day thing is a no-go.
That would rid us of people like Darth Windisis, Lady Nintendo, Alpha and KamakaziPlumber!

[DW]

KP and Wyndisis have posted...

[Uximadesk]

Wait, let me say this!
*clears throat*
Mikaudes, what do the statistics say about the members number?
*crushes mouse* We're over NINE THOUSAND!

[DW]

HH already did it. But he didn't crush his mouse. So you win.

[Keaton]

Mouse-crushing really does conquer all.

Congratulations.

[Hi no Seijin]

Mikaudes is also a Zora, so there's some more points right there.

[DW]

There's another Zora on these forums as well...wonder if he'll bother to show up...

[DarkZelda]

Well, the thirty day thing is a no-go.
That would rid us of people like Darth Windisis, Lady Nintendo, Alpha and KamakaziPlumber!

And myself. I keep taking months off and coming back.

lol.

I'll say the same for Pyrgusfinn.

(If anyone remembers her. lol)

[Hi no Seijin]

I do.

What's up with her?
