Tell me why would a new username indemnify a person for previously breaking the rules?Quote:

Lurk all you like if that’s your thing but lurking with ill intent well that’s a different kettle of whatever. [/QUOTE]

And both logged in tonight within minutes of each other!
Suspicious much...

Late but not lamented follow-up to Log Dog's original post.
phanhabang222 - leducchinh2323 and also quochuu99 have all now been aggressively banned.
Users information has been submitted to Akismet database and StopForumSpam.com database, and all posts PMs etc deleted.
quochuu99 had the same IP, same registration date and similar DOB as the other 2.
All 3 were from Vietnam and most likely the same person, here to spam/make money off click bank referrals or cause other problems. None of those names should not be seen on here again.
As for being lurkers, after being banned. If they had not logged out when they were banned they would still be shown ad being on line but would not be able to post, send PMs or do anything much other than see the basic threads and posts. No pics or anything else.
Cheers - Neil :U
Leducchinh2323 and phanabang222 back on forum this morningQuote:

I would suggest that neither have ever logged out just left when done when they come back again their remembered with cookies on the computer so it appears they are online.
They are as of now blocked from access to all forums. Which they weren't before however they were blocked from everything in the below list of permissions for each and every forum. So I don't think I'd be too worried about them.
To top it off I changed the password for each of them a little while ago which should stop them from being recognised even if their login is remembered in their cookies.

Just went through the list of subscribed users on line in last 24 hrs and of the 481 users the 3 lurkers did not show up.
A few days ago I noticed 3 new members online that all had suspicious names :rolleyes:
One of them is dinhdohang1985...online now
As is NGUYENDUNG1999
All awaiting email confirmation
What made me even more suspicious was their stated location
dinhdohoang1985 location is 09092355536
NGUYENDUNG1999 location is 0909235566
The other ones location was identical except last 2 numbers were different eg 09092355526...a Vietnamese mobile phone number!
They all disappeared off the forum at the same time as well
I smell a rat...or 3 :C

suckhoegd1999
Location...0909235577
phuongho1854
Location...0909235536
luatthai1994
Location...0909235536

All awaiting email confirmation as well
Thoughts :?

List of sleepers (potential spammers/clickbankers) from Vietnam has just grown somewhat larger in the last hour or so whilst doing some deep diving in the back room.
9 more were aggressively banned today, all joined up in March 2022 most on the 4th couple of others at later dates in March.

Like taz01 I must be missing something - what problems/issues have these "lurkers" been causing?
