Well, in the case of the guy I was responding too, he might have taken his answer and gone home...

For those with morbid curiosity, start on the last page of the members list and then go back, page-by-page, until you find members who do post more than once. (FWIW, the "First Post" in this thread doesn't show in post count.) It's better now; used to take 40+ pages to find one legitimate member. NB: that's 40 "members" per page. Note how many were "members" only long enough to create a spam account, and never logged into that account again. What Yoda said... Lo, the Noodly Appendages smite those with spam triggers in their profiles.


Welcome, new members. We're all looking forward to your posts...

Yeah, I get dozens of people logging into my Wordpress site without posting, commenting, etc. I have to dump a couple hundred every few months

Gidday From En Zed,
I have just read the Gospel of The Flying Spaghetti Monster and I'm convinced FSMism is the way, Today I printed out the 36 X A4 poster ( http://www.venganza.org/images/wordpres ... 36rast.pdf ) "Touched By His Noodly Appendages" and have it firmly mounted on a wall in our lounge!
May the Source be with you!

Now THAT's funny.

When is it ok to post in other threads? I'm pretty confused at the moment.

Make a post in another thread, once it gets approved you may post where you wish. Sin. WoE.
