imagine if he was banned. then he'd never get to 10000 posts. No one would ever even know he'd come so close...

...and his postcount seems to going down. How's that even possible? A month ago, it was 9,999. Now, it 9,998.

It's like somebody gave them a script to follow...

Every two-three months I clean out all the accounts that registered and never validated, and all the accounts that registered and haven't logged in months. Hundreds of accounts get deleted, half of them with gobbledygook names, the other half with names like xxviagraxx that give their game away.
I reckon this is temporary too, but perhaps longer lasting that previous strategies to block their access. I wonder if we'll ever get to the stage that for full fledged read write edit thread access to the cellar we'll require a peer reviewed application. Essay format. Ten sample posts. Examples of wit and eloquence.

Glad I got grandfathered in. :whew:

But, but...hardcorebondageslut might have had delightful insights into the economic development of third world countries, the right to bear arms, or at least a good word association.

Yes, but after careful exploration of her online activities at other sites, it appeared to me that she was a one trick pony.
