We do this on a classic bike site I administrate. It's like the old saying "Profit is sanity, Turnover is vanity". All very well having thousands of registered users, but when only 100 or so post, it doesn't mean shit. :smt003

There are a lot of 'lurkers' mainly on the falco side of life, I tend to leave those be as theyre doing no harm, but we do get a steady flow of spam accounts that dont get approved, we tend to delete them daily, which isnt a problem, however now and again I get the chainsaw out and do a proper bit of pruning of the membership list.

What about the spammers?
I notice we have a few these days cluttering every thread up demanding some sort of reply, but rarely getting one :smt002 :smt003
