Any or all of the above may be bots, trolls, alternative IDs for more established members, ceetar, or other. I'm perhaps most intrigued to meet our two vowel-heavy users who joined within two minutes of each other on October 15. I vaguely suspect they are new tire manufacturers that have joined to follow our tire thread.

I'm hoping AIMrMet is oldoriginaljb, but I doubt it... haha
If we're on ehost, justhost or that bluesomething there's supposedly
a big phpbb upgrade coming. Maybe that will cut down on the 'guests'
and the phony registrants.
Or I could be Magilla Gorilla.

I don't know what to make of our three most recent applications.
I'm guessing JeansKeyzhu is the new face of BennieJeansg. The other two could be real, but both feel unlikely.
I guess I let 'em all in and brace for spam.

Edgy's version of a catch and release program.
Whoever posted the MMOexp threads should be the next to go.

He, she, or it came, posted three spam link threads in a subforum, asking folks to download videogames or something, and I deleted the threads and blocked the member.
Same activity as BennieJeansg, although I might not have zapped those threads. Probably the same text in the three posts.

It looks like "people" are figuring out a way to get past the little quiz that comes up at registration, where you sort Mets position players and pitchers. Anyone with access to Google could have solved the puzzle at any time but until now few have bothered. Maybe AI bots have become sophisticated enough to solve the puzzle.

Oh, no!
That means fans will soon become replaceable.

I might have to jump ahead and assume membership applicant
Seraphinang with the e-mail address of
s08779wmohcexpx8eor@gmail.com isn't quite kosher.

Don't worry about him. His head will explode trying to remember his password.

I think it would lead to links for Granny Porn. We can probably do without that.

I tend to agree. I guess the question is, do we think it enough to give the applicant a one-post test?
