Title: Note: removing a lot of spambots/inactive users
Post by: frvge on February 07, 2009, 02:00:32 AM

Hi all,

In a few weeks, I'll be removing users with 0 to 2 posts, or users that are registered to the same IP.
Should clear things out by 300-400 members.

If you have a clone or something, please let me know via PM and I'll consider not deleting it.

Regards,

frvge

A quick calculation learns me the number should be around 602 ;) We have to implement some anti-bot in the registration page, perhaps a question like "What is 1340 - 3 in words?" Besides that, a ReCaptcha system might be in place (http://recaptcha.net/).
