I know I've been here since like 2011 so I know everything.As for the fourm game thing...the only thing I saw was eee's wecity.I'm going to delete my posts up there.Emerald141 wrote:Yeah, forum games like the pseudo-game posted above aren't allowed on this forum. There was a spammy explosion of them a few years back and the result was a blanket ban.
Also, @wonderman: You've been posting quite a lot today; please try to avoid excessive posting, it's referred to as "flooding the forum" and is generally frowned upon.

Sometimes, its better to escape out of a mess rather than trying to stop it yourself.
It might result in a bigger mess.
I faced this problem too once here.
And that's why I don't mess so much into people's stuff in this spell (June)
In my first spell(April-May), I was quite a curious person.
I got so bored so that I'd peep into other personal stuff.
Just to mess up myself and ask a sorry.
This thing happened long long ago, so long ago, very very long ago that I DO remember how long ago:

90% of 12042 ≈10837 actual real members.
Though I may be off on the %, could be that someday I'll
find out what the actual percentage is. That would be interesting to know.
I guess most of the 10,000 have gone on to greener pastures,
bless their hearts, wherever they are..
I suppose we should let wonderman109 take a well deserved break now.

Re: 12042 members
*bump* Sorry to bump this sort of topic. but I took a careful look and I found that 90% is an understatement. More like 95% or 98%.tyteen4a03 wrote: Iwould guess 90% of them are spambots.
Fortunately, most of the spammers are inactive, really active, or not completely sspamming all the time, so that chops it down to like 40%.
Example I found on the spot. Sorry to MickeyMouse if he or she is still active, but this kind of makes no sense.mickey-mouse wrote:

Not just bullies, spammers can be anyone.
SS01 mentioned in MNIK's 'OBEY ME!' topic that he thinks spamming is generally immature, and bullies are usually also over-mature, in a sense.
But regardless whether I'm right or wrong, spam is just annoying.
I wish there was some prevention method MS had to stop or at least reduce it.It's a bit down now, (yes, 95%, 90% and even 40% are huge exaggerations,) but it's still a problem that needs solving nevertheless.

spambots R Us

Yes, it's true spammers can be anyone.
We just aren't that active anymore, at least not in your nice forum.
There are basically two types of us.
(a) regular forum parasites, (that have posted at least once.)
(b) other spambots, (zero-posters).
(Sigh!) we try so hard, and do you buy our stuff. _ No! _
Well, without much fuss, since you guys wanted to know some "official"
member statistics. I can compute that for you; I am a spambot, after all.
These statistics are accurate as of Feb 25, 2012, only
but that's okay, it's still recent.
OUT OF A TOTAL MEMBER COUNT OF 12020
Total posts count (all added together) = 252469
Total members with post counts of 40 to 3999, = 262 ≈ 0.10 % of those that do post
Total members with post counts of 4000 or more, = 14 ≈ 0.0055 % of those that do post
Number of members with 1 post ONLY = 244 ≈ 2.03 % of TOTAL members)
Number of members with 0 posts = 10808 ≈ 89.91 % of TOTAL members)
Number of members that have posted at least once = 1212 ≈ 10.08 %
Of those that have never posted (0 posts):
-- 894 have an email address, ≈ 8.27 % of zero-posters
-- 9914 do not have an email, ≈ 91.72 % or zero-posters
It is clearly evident from the charts above that zero-posters are in the majority.

Now what I'm wondering is, how many of these people who never post download lots of stuff without commenting, hiding in the shadows?
yes. I lurk.
Yes. As a member of the spambot species I keep busy.
I frequently lurk here, when I can, and am not busy.
I'm happy to be the Wonderland spambot. ---

I suspect that there are quite a handful of shadow people lurking about.
*Posts again just to prove he isn't a spambot*
By 'spammers' do you mean the people who post stuff like this:
YO YO YO, YOU DONT POST THIS TO [Insert number here] TOPICS, IN A FEW DAYS, ON THE [Insert date here] AT [Insert late time here] YOU WILL GET [Insert terrible fate here]
Or like the hackers and what.
I dont post a whole lot, but I've been casually 'Lurking' for quite some time.
