I joined right after DarkStar and right before Wicked Pilot (I think).

Just some trivia.

They're sleeper cells. Ready in wait for Graham Kennedy to give the word. Then all of a sudden out of nowhere, *BAM!* endless Star Trek spam. We need to hunt them down and deport their sorry asses before it's too late.

Who's with me?

What were you saying about joined dates? Hmmmm?
Hey, the people that posted right before me joined later than me. :D

Sounds like someone's trying to skew polls. I'd bet more then one of those is from a troll facing a ban poll attempted to save themselves.

They probably do what I do a lot, register and then forget about the website, or register but doesn' t post. Actually I don' t register immediately usually until I have something to say because no one is saying it, that' s why I joined SB.

bah, I was on stardestroyer.net on July 3rd but I left before Mike put up the board.

If you use the date that you joined as rank than I am one of the top posters :P

Perhaps jail time, comas, and being commited prevented people from posting.

Or, they just had some probelm and gave up. When I first registered, I spent 30 minutes trying to post, until I realized that the name I wanted exceeded the character limit, and I got stuck with "Smi". I never noticed that until I looked atr who was online, on the bottom of the board.

That does actually sound like a pretty good idea....but I wonder: do you want it to be only two weeks, or a whole month? Either way, but it IS up to you guys, so I'll step out.
I don't think it makes a difference whether it's a single week or a year, it's not about being idle, it's about creating the account and not even begin using it at all... anyway it also means that nothing is lost, obviously not the post count (0).

I joined 50th, however I'm number 6 in terms of post count. Of the five above me, only one joined before me, Darth Wong. All here shall bow before ME!

Eactly, there's no need to keep the hundreds of people that pile up and never post. Look at Spacebattle, there are probably a thousand or more people that registered but never posted. There's no need to keep all of them around not to mention tying up names others might want.

I have just initiated a mass purge. All members who have been around for more than a month without posting are gone.

Sorta. Though there are some people who DO post who should be deleted.

Say CSS wannabe and Apologist.

I would suggest that this be a regular thing. Say that every 3 months Wong looks at the posting list. If ur silent the whole time ur gone, Exceptions can be made if you notify admin that you are gonna be away or deafted to the army etc.

Wong has a double account. Therefore, you're actually user #49 and I'm #50. I should be on page 1! (but being the first on page 2 is also nice).

Have a very nice day.
