Has Papsweb conducted its first bannings?

I’m sure there were 111 members first thing this morning. The last time I looked there were only 107 :slight_frown:

A-ha. Nope. They weren’t bannings. Just some accounts that had never logged in before, had email addresses from a Chinese domain, using male usernames, but oddly enough, rocking female first names in their email addresses. Never posted, never logged in, just jamming up the works.

I’ve been banned at least once.

Were they like automated spam accounts, Pap?

Does that mean that someone has to break the news to Smiler and your dad that they might not have been the technical and actual centurions after all? :slight_frown:

They looked like good candidates. Two of the accounts had actually been authorised to post by myself, but I think we’ve been shielded from the fact we’re running something that is not as off the shelf as some of the more widely used forums. I’ve deliberately disabled auto-approval via confirmation email to prevent us from getting overrun with the spambots you see on the Independent et al.

As for the awards, they still stand. Using the legion metaphor, the Chinese brigade were bravely sacrificed for the glory of quality content at sotonians. We will remember them! :laughing:

Have you been reading the Kama Sutra to Mrs Goat again, you naughty boy?

The good news is that 69 is still on.

She shows me the pictures. I do as I’m told.

My missus is on all the time, at least that’s what she tells me…

I wish I had been 69’d instead of 100’ded given a choice!
