In response to the 500th member being a bot, I went through the memberlist searching for bots. Let's just say the findings were pretty bad Sad . With 500 'users', 386 never post and 80 or so are (more than likely) bots. Following is the list I came up with. The number goes at the end of:
http://www.cemetech.net/forum/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=
and the name is in case I wrote the number wrong and vice versa (the number is a higher chance of being right because of some of the weird "names").

Rechecking each profile probably isn't necessary, but I'm 100% sure on 95% of them and 90% on the rest. Kerm, if you would like to give me temp-Admin privledges, I could help elfprince13 with the banning.
Garg, 'tis saddening news, but at least we have awesome members like you to do stuff like this! Smile

BTW, I've been deleting every bot topic, no matter how much Kerm and elf seem to think that their worthless commentary makes the topic worth saving. Wink
I made him temporary admin for that day and a half, so presumably he did me the service of bannination. Thanks, kirb. Smile
a lot of those have already been banned, but Kerm requested the accounts not be deleted Neutral
I did? Hmm, maybe I did. I like the usercount stats, and once they're banned, they're not causing harm anyway.

Thank god, I was getting sick of admins just locking them and leaving their ugliness at the top of the "new posts" - delete that shiatz y0

they screw your google pagerank.... SFGP has a higher PageRank the Cemetech.

What do you mean? How can you compare the two? Google does not publish PR numbers...

Sure they do. What do you think the whole "Pagerank:" meter in the google toolbar is? Rolling Eyes

do you have the google toolbar for Firefox? it tells you the PageRank of the page you are at. last I checked SFGP had a pagerank of 4, and Cemetech had pagerank of 3. Google incorporates the apparent number of spamlinks into the pagerank formula.
I usually only lock and remove the contents of the topic, so this way the admins can deal with it appropriatly (or we need an area where we can just put spam topics that only Admins can see).
Which is totally what you SHOULDN'T do. You SHOULD ban/delete the bot and trash the thread. Not just lock it, as thats even more annoying than the ad was.
I have no banning power though, so now what?
PM Kerm the username and delete the thread Smile
I am actually suprised Rivereye is not an Admin. I thought he was for the longest time.


[EDIT]

For some reason, I felt like putting the list in numerical order. Here it is...

[/EDIT]
your kidding, you thought I helped run this site, nah, I just am a guy who has just been here a while, and happen to mod three sub-forums here.
rofl. I love helping out manage sites and forums and such. But this is a site that I think I would seem like no help. Because you Mods and Admins are the best I have seen, like seriously.

I am guessing thats cause you know what your doing.
yeah, but I feel I do little around here. I think some of it is time in (look at my join date, and you will see some of it maybe, but I was away for two months).
Yah I looked at that before. But elfprince had not been with Cemetech as long as you had. So I was unaware why he had adminship before you. But seeing as you were gone for about 2 months I can understand.
that, and I don't think I have showed anything to Kerm that he might want in an Admin from me (though if there was a global mod for phpbb, I would be one he said).
