This is most likely the same fellow as gongoozler above. Profiles close enough to identical not to matter.
Perfectly sensible if single poster - he survives...

Yah, wouldn't have mentioned it at all if it weren't for the identical twin.

Btw, this means I've had a quick look at anyone with a website and post count of none or one. There were one or two more questionables. I'll dig them out again shortly.

Saw this one briefly but while I was checking it out it's vanished ... I don't know if it cloaked, or got chopped! Anyway, in case it's still lurking:

Regarding all this cloaking: is this a feature desired by anyone except spammers? Can it/should it be turned off?

Edit: pretty nifty work there on catmoolsk: the poor bugger was still online when you did for him! I wonder if there's a way to make profiles emit a high-pitched squeak on termination ...

May be a false positive but I get a bad feeling about

NashKelley: https://bb.oolite.space/memberlist.php?m ... ile&u=4818

Mostly it's the mix of upper and lower case, I think, but still ...

Your spammy sense about NashKelley was spot-on, Disembodied... big-time spammer.
I've banned its e-mail and IP.

Came across this very old thread/post, which is either spam or very confused.

https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1680

The member made three other posts which, while still looking a little confused, seem to be legit. What do we do with it?

I'd say, some kind of bizarre spam, but as other has replied, can only delete and retain posts or, manually edit all the posts to remove their content, no IP address (too old) and email is clear, I guess, deactivate the account - hasn't been on line for almost a year...

Well, there's really only one piece of spam - the others were a result of double posting. I'd say kill the urine one, and leave the rest alone.
