1500 members

[boxman55]

Wow I just looked and saw that we reached 1500 IHD members  The more the merrier...Boxman

[Sluff]

Look again.  We are almost there.

Hey Sluff,

I agree with Boxman55, when I was on IHD early this morning it said 1502 members. What did you do with them??? 

[goofynina]

Those were members (or Spammers) waiting to be approved, once we deny them, they are deleted and the member count goes back down again.  Thank you for noticing though, 

[boxman55]

Yah it showed exactly 1500 then I get back from dialysis and it removed 4 which was exactly how many kilos I had removed. whats up with that ...Boxman

[boxman55]

Look there it is again...1500             Boxman

Sorry to tease you guys, but we still have 5 more to go    We refuse to allow any Spammers here and that is who is sending the member count so high, they are trying to get in but we are stopping them at the door

Cuz when we delete the spammers, the post count goes down the same amount of Spammers we deny and delete. 

[Sluff]

Good example: This morning the member count was 1509. There were 14 spammers that I had to delete which brought it back to 1495.

Thanks for keeping them out, guys. Let us know when we have 1500 legitimate members!

that part i understand, what i ment was how do you know they are spammers?

[Deanne]

It looks like there are more spammers who try to join than there are legitimate people. Thanks for keeping them away!

Usually a screwed up name or you get used to what e-mail addresses are phony or sometimes we email them before thy are approved. A spammer won't answer your emails.

I know it was said already, but I have to say it again.  Epoman would have been so proud of his admins!!

[angela515]

We are so close to 1500, but I never see that many post, I wonder how many actually post and how many just read and/or never log in?

[tamara]

Well from just looking at the members list in the home page of the forum, 789 members or 27 pages with no posts.

Cmon Newbies Post !.................................please
