Fake Members

[RPGDreamer]

Is there any way any of the administrators and moderators can delete members... I know a few members that someone made up... It makes our member list too crowded with un-nessisary space... It makes people un-interested in the site...

Word to that, If say someone registers and doesnt post after alteast a month they should be done away with. This might free up the username for someone else to use. Good thought Dreamer, I think an Admin should be able to accomplish this.

Could you PM me with the names of these people so that I can investigate this further RPGDreamer? Thanks

[Blake]

Here are just a couple of examples. I dont know the ones RPG Dreamer are talking about but...

Feeltheburn--joined 17,Dec,2003--posts:1
PS3 Wannabe--joined 17 Dec 2003--posts:1
ahhh--joined 01 Jan 2004--posts:1
luxurys--joined 05 Jan 2004--posts:0

But those are just a few examples.

Well PS3wannabe is one of my friends :wink: . What I meant was RPG Dreamer was implying was that he knew members who were defiantly going to stay on 0 posts. If someone has 0 posts it does not necessarily mean that they will never post. However I do understand the logic that members who don't post after 2/3 months should be deleted. Although I was a regular user of another forum a year ago or so, and then I didn’t post for a couple months, then I started to post again. Does this mean that people who don’t post get deleted? Or just that people who stay on zero posts get deleted? (Could someone clarify which it is for me?) It would have been very annoying to have had my account deleted in that short space of time, just because I didn’t post.

Really just the people with 0-10 posts that have been away for a couple of months. This way they arent really losing much concerning ammount of posts. If you have posted for about a year then ofcourse you have quite a few posts, those people dont diserve to get they're accounts deleted. Im mainly just talking about the people that sighn up post a couple times or none at all then scram.

Yeah respect to those who have decent posts and respect. Also I think topics which haven't been replied to in a while definetly need to be deleted.

[Seb]

Yea we'll auto prune the forums once they get a little bigger.

[Kamesenshin]

Hey that's good. I guess I'm too much in advance here but I just wanna say it.

hey, i had an account for a month with only 1 post. I was busy and all. Then i came back and posted about 20 or so accounts, does that mean i shoud be banned? :?

[Seb]

20 Accounts! You should only use one for forums. Definitely be banned for that I would have thought - It wastes the Admins time. If thats what you meant of course.

[Dragonlance]

err sorry, i just made a error while typing.... 20 POSTS lol 20 accounts.... mwahahah ;)

[Seb]

In that case I don't think you should be banned imo.
