I still don't get why people register and then do nothing. There are loads of 0 post newbies who've been on there for ages.

Secures a user name, and also the 'messages since last here' tells you everythign you've missed, so you don't have to recall that it's been three months sicne you last looked in on the DMJava, I guess

I'm more amazed at the unregistered users I delete personally - if they are spammers, there was absolutely no reason for them to register because theer is nothign i their profile, and if they are users why didn't they activate their account?

Some people like to just read forums, not posting.

I do that on several forums, except I don't register. :wink:

Also some people may decide to register on a forum, and then change mind and not activate their account.

The people I'm more worried about are the people who come on the forum, register, post a lot of things and then reveal their true nature of spammers.

I find a swift, sharp kick in the gonads can usually determine mortality.

If the person is a big b*******d then I guess your mortality follows soon after?

I though it was 606, rather than 616 or 666?

Meh. According to QI (some point in Series D, I believe, possibly the Halloween special), it's 616, /shrug. 'Cause some bloke was reading the original text (whatever it was) where it said that the "Number of the Beast" is 616, and he figured they wrote it wrong and that for some reason it "must" be 666.
