The advertisement industry doesn't seem to have problems finding new ways to shit on our porch..

Click the memberlist on this forum -> sort by usernames (ascending) and browse the first 10 members on the list.. :/

I wonder what this is good for. What do you get from adding a couple of
inactive member entrys to a forum?

Anyway, fred should just delete them IMHO.

I assume they get a bit higher ranking on search engines.

I think pupil is right ... the more "foreign" sites point (have a link) to a site (like porn-sites in this case),the certain site get a higher ranking. AFAIK at least the google-algo uses this info... :idea:
Although I am not quite sure if the search-bots find the links in the memberlist.php ? hmm .... u'll never know :roll:

There are 291 users with ZERO posts.

Why not delete all these :?:

Or at least all that joined last year.

And 'bridgette' too of course. :wink:

Kick, kick and of course: KICK! We really should try to keep this forum as clean and tidy as possible.

erm, I signed up to keep an eye on PB... was very curious about it... I remember trying it on the Amiga back in the day etc. but seeing how nasty some of you can be to noobs etc, kept me quiet... I suspect the same could be true for some others who are here amd haven't posted... and I still can't make up my mind whether to purchase this product or not lol :). Sorry, had to get a dig in somewhere hehe.

LuCiFeR[SD]: Of course your right, however you have to get yourself into the community to get above all that, still sometimes people feel a little cold instead of warming, maybe it just the way the world is going, everyone becoming self centred and self obsessed, in anycase this isn't true for most of the community, just like the blitz community pure has it's "evil doers"

I'm fairly new and so far most of the poeple have been really nice and helpful to me. Of course, I'm not new to forums in general, that's why I search for a good while to see if it's already been posted. (I know it's annoying to see questions asked more than a couple times.)

Well, I appreciate your kindness to me, and it's definitly swayed me into buying PureBasic knowing that I'll have followed up support for as long as I stay.

I am NOT self-centered and I am saying that just as an affirmation! :twisted:

The subject "smashing newbies" has nothing to do with being rude to
newbies... it's about deleting the fake newbie accounts that were made
here to advertise porn. So relax. :)
