Some more "members" who went under the radar:

ntvinh986: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2761 (location "hjdhfjh", occupation "jhjdfhj", interests "hjdhfjd"; oh yes, and MSN messenger "hjhdfjhj"; whatever language that is, I would like to know its pronounciation :roll: )

MariaTCTfounds: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2759 (don't you just love it when some random name has some random-but-not-matching email address?)

The other guys with 0 posts ara of course suspicious, but I can't prove anything.

Yeh, I've tagged it twice.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who occasionally revisits the zero-post membership list...

Tiergosippeme: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2807 (another random email and random ICQ)

quesnelam: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2806 (apologies if you're legit, but "old is gold" is sort of a strange occupation)

You've beaten me to each of these - but have we suddenly sprung a leak!? Spambots seems to be pouring in!

Certainly don't want to strip you of the fun of nailing these. :twisted:

Just thought it is about time that I do a little bit for my "Spam Assassin" badge. :wink:

No spammers, but I have the strong suspicion that https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2676 (YAJ) and https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2677 (Yet Another Jameson) were two unsuccsessful registration attempts of https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2678 (Y A J), and could therefore be removed.

I PM him.

And Goodurfargo: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2808 registered while I was PMing (random unrelated username, email, and ICQ)

Some more suspicious older "members":

I have no strong case against AJGreen: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2641, except the website (a proxy list).

Saivin: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2636 has a fitting email, but the ICQ seems fake.

Genroxbro: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2592 also has a fitting email, but the ICQ link gives an error page.

JamesXU: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2591 is a clear case, everything seems fake.

SwineFlu: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2584 ditto.

oppovaApolf: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2582 ditto, and google as website. Sure.

NexeFraSig: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2579 ditto, the web link goes to some empty user page created the same day and not visited since.

Incallurbance: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2570, another one with non-matching random names.

JinMellekUh: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2569 ditto. Seems the web entry has already been deleted.

unloreosini: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2564 non-matching random names

PazolloKartz: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2558 ditto, and fake website.

Mumakiltwinly: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2557 ditto.

inviliaspoola: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2555 ("big-indian-tits" as part of your homepage? sure.)

LeabsfasPCAS: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2553 (interests: sex; sorry, wrong boards).

cymnoccasse: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2547 (I would love to know that we actually have a member in Afghanistan, but it's not you, buddy!)

CipDuche: https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2541 (the usual unrelated randomness)

And that was the last five pages of the memberlist, back to July 1st, 2009.

A lot more zero-post entries with suspicious names, but as most of them didn't leave anything but their names, it's hard to tell.

A few of these have PMs in my outbox (i.e. they weren't picked up) where I've wished them a welcome to the boards - when I have a little more time I'll list them too - a little pruning surely wouldn't come a miss - I'd hate to think we have a board full of sleepers...
