Help cleaning up spambots

[DarkSideAccord]

hey guys.. if anyone has time, can you go through the member's list and flag any potential spambots? these guys normally have these traits:

1. 0 posts
2. has a homepage
3. has links in their signature
4. last activity date is the same as the join date

here's the link to the meber's list:

you can sort it by join date or any way you want. I had time at work this morning and had already banned about a hundred spambots.. if you guys have time, it would great if u could help out

Sounds like 6GA should hire more mods. I know of a few people looking for such a job..

We should ban anyone who hasn't been active in...let's say 18 months. Especially if they've got less than 50 or 100 posts.

^Agreed, Roy can only do so much on his own.

Also, think that a minimum period of nonactivity should result in a ban. About 80% of the -days that come up are of people who haven't been active sine 07/08.

tht's actually kinda stupid...there are tons of ppl with less than 100 posts who are inactive.. but it doesn't mean tht htey are spambots


thanks for the help guys.. so far, i've only received one notification?

I just reported one. Had one legible post but it was for a sex/porn site.

In checking the few that I did, I noticed a number of members who had zero posts and hadn't been active since the day they joined. And that was 3, 4, 5+ years ago. It's not that they're spam or taking up space, but why are they here? They may have been the beginning of a spam or like a permanent way into a place to deposit spam.

As for me no being a moderator; I figured just as much. Can't blame me for trying. I'm a rebel though. People don't like me or think I'm too unstable. That's fine. I'm a stand up guy and if given the responsibility, I'd more than proven my worth. Regardless, I also said that I know of a FEW people who'd be awesome mods.

Wouldn't it also help if, when they make posts, members didn't posts in those threads? A lot of the mods on my other forums get pretty upset when we reply to their BS.
