I do believe Confucius said the same thing.

I've noticed a distinct lack of new signups lately; we used to get thousands sign up every week, but now we've kind of frozen on the 106,000ish mark. Not that I'm complaining or anything, but perhaps they've gotten the hint that no one can survive the wrath of Paulky The Spampire Slayer's Mr. Pointy

Our Glorious Overlords installed a new piece of anti-spam software and it seems to have been working.

Got a really pesky new spammer that's been posting threads with links to various episodes in the Off Topic thread.

Nice! I did wonder if something was afoot!

Would they permit me to go into the member list and vanquish the more obvious "members"? That is, the ones who go by those stupid 15-character "bits of words and numbers" handles?

As there are thousands of those by now, and 99% probably have no activity, I'd suggest holding off on that; aside from anything else, the more you list the more we'd have to deal with!
