k thx 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2004 Earlier I logged out and clicked on "register" to see how many letters I could use if I changed my name. However, when I did this, I got a message saying "The board administrator is no longer accepting any new registrations at the moment". I did it again just now to see if it was a glitch and the same thing happened. Is this just for me, a mistake or is Dames shutting up shop for a while?

k thx 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2004 I closed the board to new members for a while. Too many trolls keep coming. Dames Fair enough. Although if new, genuine people get refused once, they might not try again later, whereas trolls will be more likely to return at a later date and keep on trolling.

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2004 I think it's a good idea. I can't remember the last new poster in the last few months who really brought anything, anyway. Dames, while you're at it, you may wanna start deleting some of the users who haven't ever posted here and just registered, only to never appear again.

The rule should state that if you post anything stupid in that folder (which is pretty much anything at this point), you will be placed on probation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Golgo 13 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2004 On the subject of no registrations, I think it's high time we bring it back, if only gradually with probationary measures (i.e. 24 hrs. to get out the confirmation e-mail, a 'read only' forum for the first couple days where hopefully they'll take the time to read the rules, or if it's possible, limiting the number of signups to a set number per day). I mean, there's always gonna be trolls, and thankfully more often than not, they get found out sooner rather than later. But at least now, with the stop on name changes, it'll be less confusing as to whether someone is a troll or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Downhome 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2004 We also need to get rid of all usernames that have been signed up, yet have not been used. I know Dames tried to do so before, but it needs to be done. In my opinion of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my opinion of course. Agreed. There are currently 906 accounts with 0 posts. Good lord. There's no telling how many of those usernames are trolls just waiting to bust them out. Still, if there are only 906 registered names that have never posted before, that's pretty cool considering the thousands of members that we have. I figured there were more than just 906. I'd, say, delete all members who haven't posted at all in the past six months or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
