Re-Activate the members list
 
Why was it disabled in the first place, I remember when it happened but did Unixmad give a reason?

How did the members list create spam?

Yes, it was removed because of spam. However, it was fun seeing the top 10 posters, and it was really easy to find people to PM them that way :(

Yea, that's stupid though, anyone who did that has problems.

you could solve the spam by a: turning off post counts or b: removing the 500/1000 limits

I used it to look for people's AIM screen names and such, since I get easily tired of clicking search, then looking through zillions of posts for that person just to click their profile.

Exactly, they should be removed. I don't want to have to wait so long to get my avatar and title but I'm not going to result to spam to get it, although most people will.

I like the Avatar/Title Idea because it gives you abition to post. Anyways it still should be re-activated.

ZanderX 05-05-2002 08:26 AM

I didn't spam to get my title or avatar. :)

I thoguth it was disabled because of the new HP system.

Zolrieg 05-05-2002 01:40 PM

you can't stop the spam, just accept it and move on...

SkooL 05-05-2002 01:50 PM

I thought it was deactivated because unixmad was frustrated with an error not adding new members to the list.

It is staying disabled.

We have gone through this before.

About 40729847102139810 times. =D

Doesn't matter to me whether it would get re-enabled or not. I just think it's dumb having to have 500/1000 posts for stuff. People post if they want to... and it's not like you can spam with an avatar :confused:
