You'll find it fewer than that.

I don't have a contract yet...

Who was he?

[barrydidit]

9 years patient waiting just for that.

It's like those desert flowers that lie there dormant waiting for the rain. Only for Cojak to spring out from behind a cactus with a bucket of weedol as soon as it clouds up.

WGAS

If you look in the members list, there's thousands of names with 2, 1, or zero posts.

It's sockie heaven.

Indeed on the WGAS comment, clearly it amuses the sockmeister though.

Doubt it would take Admin long to clear down the user list and scrape all those sockies into the bin.

Life's too short for that tulip, got too much other (productive) work to do! A lot of the cack in there is from the days when it was cool to add profiles to forums to try and get links for SEO purposes. A lot of the 1 and 2 post accounts are people doing what a lot of people do on forums - sign up, ask a question, read the answer, bugger off!

If Admin doesn't know who they are, how will they know which ones to remove?

[administrator]

Write a script, not difficult, probably just a query on the database, something like this ....

UPDATE users SET userstatus='disabled' WHERE postcount <= 5 AND lastlogin > '01/01/2014';

Job done ...

There is no disabled, users are either in or out. Could set them back to the new user group but that exists for users with a post count < whatever already so if they are above this they will automatically be upgraded to the standard registered user group (and will therefore be able to post without moderation) or they will already be in the lower privilege group due to their low post count, which means they can't post without prior mod approval and therefore most sockie posts don't turn up. Every system is a can of worms!

Old regulars with logins having their hard working sockies snuffed out by Newbie Mods. Poor show.
