k776 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Nice idea to increase board hay counter }:->After 48 hours, we're like to have lost about 4k+ users, when we prune old accounts. We're doing this because quite a lot of them are possibly spam accounts. We don't want to have to battle spam forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primus Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Hello, Jean-Pierre from France. I've been a fan of RTS for quite some time, I remember playing ancient art of war on a Tandy PC with two diskette drives as storage....Anyway, great project, keep up the good work.

Kimball Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 I gotta be honest, I highly doubt that most of them are spam accounts. Sure, perhaps a few have slipped under the radar, but I guarantee the vast majority of them are just like the people replying to this thread.

If a good portion of them (1k) are spam bots, 1 a day means fighting spam for 3 more years :-PI'd much rather do what we are, let people show activity, and delete those who don't. If anyone gets deleted and they come back, they just re-register. And that way, we can know for sure that spam from existing users won't be a problem.

The_Gentleman Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Greetings from Germany!This is Christian calling, known as "The_Gentleman", too. I've got an education as IT systems electronics specialist and an bachelor of science in computer science. I'm going to add my master of science in computer science in round about a year. I'm "Certified Tester" on foundation level. So I know a little bit about computers and how programs are working... Programming and/or query languages I can write, debug and understand:- MIPS Assembler- C/C++/C#/ASP.net- Java- html/php- MySQL/SQL- some moreI think, this should be enough for the moment to know about me.

Dead1nside Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Hi, just wanted to say I'm very excited about 0 A.D. for its fusion of history and gameplay, I look forward to seeing it evolve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most don't lay dormant unless they can't post (i.e. haven't approved their email address). That also means that they won't be approved at any point in the future, unless we were to rid ourselves of the email verification rule.If my account got purged, I wouldn't come back and re-register.

The_Gentleman Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 If my account got purged, I wouldn't come back and re-register.This will be the same for many. They take purging as an offense. But I know this problem. It's the same on many boards, blogs or pages. But this may be a good idea, because some of these sleeping accounts will remember that they wanted to be up to date about 0A.D.! Perhaps more of them will get active again.

Shadowhawk101 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Well, not much to say besides I found you on ModDB, became very interested and have been following you guys ever since! I eagerly await releases and had you confused with Wolfire games for awhile (not sure how that happened).But enough about that, and a bit about me: I LOVE to write and read, play/model/kinda paint Warhammer 40,000 Table Top, am fascinated with Hellenistic and Imperial Roman History, and create mods for Bethesda games. (Its easy and fun)Oh yeah; to the development team: Great Work and like I said earlier, am loving everything I see!------------Shadowhawk--------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
