So, I'm tired of deleting account after account of spammers and linkbot types. In 24 hours, all users with 0 posts are going to get nuked. We will be doing this periodically. As we have no advertisements, I don't feel for users that made an account and didn't post as we gain nothing from having more viewers - and really, if I wanted more viewers I'd just write an article about *insert stupid executive's name here.* Nothing personal, blame the eastern bloc or something.

You have been warned. If you want to remain a lurker, just post in this thread. I won't judge you, but others might.

Is one day enough what? Or is this now a philosophical question thread?

If a lurker is banned in a forest, does he make a sound?

So, since they are being deleted, can't someone who lurks just re-make their account if it gets deleted?

2391 have zero posts but I wouldn't really classify them as lurkers. Most probably don't visit.

At the risk of getting nuked from orbit, I was thinking just yesterday I wouldn't mind a couple ads if it keeps the site going.

Oh yes, those intelligent Google adds that work with keywords.

I'm probably missing something obvious, but how does this reduce spam? Don't they just create new accounts to link to their online casinos with?

Pfft, once you start actually posting your faith in humanity withers down then eventually falls off.

If you like reading politics, why not contribute? The worst thing that going to happen is that we expose you as a fraud and laugh off the board.
