Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 6, 2003 That is the not so exact number of REGISTERED posters that have ZERO posts to their history... Why is it that we have so many registered names and no posts? And why do those said names still exist? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Retro Rob Report post Posted July 6, 2003 They probably stumbled on to the site. Decided to check out the forum and register while they were there. Then they either forgot about it or were too scared to post anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted July 6, 2003 this has also bothered me for awhile. And half of those names belong to guys who post under different names. Dames should send an email to the 1890 people and tell them their accounts will be deleted if they don't start posting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MaxPower27 Report post Posted July 6, 2003 Why, does it really do anything bad to the board? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cobainwasmurdered Report post Posted July 6, 2003 it's just...lame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MaxPower27 Report post Posted July 6, 2003 Why is it lame? Because over 1800 people have never even crossed your path, and have never even interacted with you, so it's "lame" Seriously, read a book or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted July 6, 2003 I know that Dames has been trying to set up someway to delete their account or something. It's more of a bandwith issue then anything- all those names take up uneeded bandwith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Eagan469 Report post Posted July 6, 2003 1890/3498 So we have 1608 active names. I'd suggest that Dames, if he ever gets around to housecleaning, removes all names with 0 posts and IP's that *don't* correspond to those names with more than 1 post. I'm sure alot of active posters here registered a few names for whatever reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 6, 2003 I have two accounts...This one (duh) and one regis. under my real name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 6, 2003 I didn't look closely but did those accounts include banned posters? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Eagan469 Report post Posted July 6, 2003 I didn't look closely but did those accounts include banned posters? good question Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Eagan469 Report post Posted July 6, 2003 (edited) The member directory shows 3476 members. So that's: 3498 registered names 22 have been banned That leaves: 3476 registered names 1890 have yet to post = 1586 active names at TSM Edited July 6, 2003 by Eagan469 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted July 6, 2003 If anybody is so inclined, I registered "Don't Work Me Keith" (after that "hacking" of the site when SK still ran it), so that name can be deleted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted July 7, 2003 This is the only name I've ever used besides the AP Newswire one, and that's available to all 20+ members of the State last summer. It's kinda fun to use as a joke too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest T®ITEC Report post Posted July 7, 2003 Well, there's my dumb old "TheRockIsTheEuropeanChampion" name, and that's certainly ready to get BALEETED. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted July 7, 2003 When people are banned, their screen name shows up as "unregistered," and the account is actually deleted within the Admin CP. I doubt they count toward the total. Besides, I know that more than 22 people have been banned. Hell, I've probably banned 22 people myself. (MUAHAHAHAHAHA~!)

Guest Just Looking Report post Posted July 11, 2003 I signed up so I could read the site and not have to deal with all the stupid pictures while at work. I'm guessing most of those who have no posts to their name are signing up for the same reason. Not all poeple want to post (like me- I chose Just Looking for a reason); some just like to see what others are thinking. I've been following the board since right before the Keith split, so I'm not some newbie or anything like that, either. So I am asking for Dames not to erase all of those people with low post counts, or at the very least not me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted July 14, 2003 Dames shouldn't delete them just because of not posting. He should email the ones he can't account for and ask if they use the board in any manner. Those who don't respond, say they don't use it or have another name should deleted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
