Personally, I think you guys are just trying to keep the line that says "Our newest member ibell" for as long as possible....

I'm perfectly calm, just waiting for my nervous breakdown :o 10 - 9 - 8 - 7 - 6 .........
Phew, it passed.

Seriously, great to see him here. Somehow I doubt dbraben is going to show up. Given that he hits down on any commercial exploitation of elite look-alike games and that he is very careful with endorsing anything that has to do with 3rd party recreations, changes, updates to any elite game I believe he will stay away. He does seem to silently tolerate non-profit community projects like FFE3D and Oolite though.

Back on topic (imagine that!):

etyavbioja https://bb.oolite.space/memberlist.php?m ... ile&u=3919

3 hits on SFS. Haven't had a look at the website in the profile.

Edit: Curiosity got the better of me. If anyone wants to 'Find the best Internet Psychic Tellings', you'd better hurry over before the acc't gets nuked and the link lost forever...

(I mean, really. etyavbioja. At least they could come up with usernames that it's remotely plausible that anyone might actually remember...)

Nothing on SFS. Dubious website. Your call.

(Se previous post for my feelings on improbable usernames.)

In the realm of hospital A & E staff are banned from using the word "quiet" - as in "Isn't it quiet tonight" - as the Gods will hear it and make sure there's a major incident within ten minutes of the words being spoken.

I'm just wondering if any of the Spam Assassins used the "Q" word?

Not one new member since ibell on Sunday, but about 20 deleted new users all spammers - some splashed even before they were tagged on here...

I think it's probably something about the new forum. Maybe the smell of php3 attracts more bots ...

Well, you certainly did use the word now: https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9013

Heh! The sneaky bastard probably thought itself safe since it had been allowed to live for about a week...
