I was just peeking around, and noticed out last new member joined Dec 31, 2008. That person was "SnownsitHarbuck."
After the spammy bots invaded, is this board no longer accepting new members or is that little area telling us the new person's name just not being updated? I think I just answered my own question. URLordTC joined since then. That little box must not be being updated... |

URLordTC joined since then. That little box must not be being updated... I wondered about that. I was pretty sure people had joined after that spam-fest, but the latest member box has stayed the same... Weird.  Edited: URLord joined before that, I think. Under his/her av it says: Group: Regulars Posts: 36 Joined: 13-June 08 From: The Land Member No.: 13,435 But, I looked at the full member list & sorted by join date, descending order. There have been some new members since December, 08, but only a few and they look suspicious. |

The little box displays accurately the last member to be approved posting rights to the board. Seems no-one else wants to come and play.

Yeah, someone from chat said that a friend of theirs had tried to join, so I checked the validation queue, there was about 200 on there waiting, 4 looked like they might be real, seems ajay at least was, so I made a good call on that one. We'll have to wait and see about the other 2.

Thanks for the welcome all. And even though I sometimes have trouble distinguishing reality from fiction, I can assure you all I am in fact real.

I don't know if it makes a difference that I'm already a member, but when I'm logged out, I can click on a few threads and read them. ETA: Ahem. Never mind. It's just the topics under Forum Help that I can read. |
