Few less members today
« on: October 28, 2011, 06:45:48 AM »
Went through our member list and deleted all accounts who hadn't been on in a year or posted anything during that time. Also deleted all accounts who had never logged on. I do this about quarterly or so.

We do this to keep the site a bit faster but it also weeds out some of the "sleeper" posters or bots that spammers like to use.

One of our anti spam mods has blocked 16,000 spammers! We have several mods in place and each one catches some. These guys just never stop.

I think there should be an anti-spam law. Like the do not call list. If it get violated they get fined. Or block them on the web entirely.
That's amazing how many people trifle junk.
