[The Midnight]

Just wanted to know..

WinnieGari... TreyWenger... OmerEichho... KeeleyAhui... MonteBuzzer... etc, etc.

I'd say 0 of them are legit. I'm guessing some of the added Facebook connectivity features brought them along.

Hey, there's nothing like the first time.

Yeah saw all those coming in last night. Removed FB connectivity and they kept coming. Changed how to register just now requiring the "type the two words you see" feature and seeing if that helps. We used to have a box that required someone to type "Go Jazz" in it which slowed bots but they figured it out.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Mo bots!

On that note, can we bash bots?

 

[moevillini]

A new twist on that old "Whack a Mole" game!

Adding FB connectivity can NEVER be a good thing.

One thing I really have a lot of respect for in regards to this board is that it's growth was done organically. I mean, do we really need more users? Regardless of the amount of new users, for the most part only the same users post.

I would love to see new posters.

So would I but the reality is that the gamut of new posters don't post. Most are lurkers or bots.

I personally think we need to be more inviting and we all need to play our part to be warm and welcoming.

yes!

I think we all need new user names - - maybe variations on the One Love theme would seem friendly and attract new posters!

CL for chair of the welcoming committee!

How does one achieve this? Please be specific.

I am not sure how Craigslist would help this.
