Forum purge

Post » Thu Nov 08, 2012 2:01 pm

Hello fellow members,

As stated in my previous post, we're going to perform a little purge of the accounts on the forum. You can see we reached 60.000+ users, but really, if we were that many active, the forum would be hard to follow. It means there is a lot of inactive users and a lot of bots too. I'm sure you saw some of the spam posts.

So we are going to perform a purge in order to free some nicknames, have a better vision of how many people are alive on here and also to, I hope, free some database space which is a good thing for the forum itself!

We haven't decided yet what the terms are going to be, but I would roughly say that if you're a member with 0 posts and not active for the last 2 years you might be in trouble! In order to be safe, I invite everyone with a 0 message counter to say Hi! in this thread.

Cheers,
Alex. ImageImage

I second the info on PV13 Image
I told the Overseer of Vault 13 I'd give everything to save everyone, and so I did, I saved them all. Since then I've felt loneliness.

To reply to all of you: Chris is still here, still active on the forum. I'm here to share the load, not to replace him totally.

I think it is not the thread to talk about V13. Please try to stick to the topic when you reply.

We are going to erase all users following these combined criterias:
- user is inactive since 01/01/2011 (more than a year!)
- user has 0 posts ImageImage

Oh! You really thought I was a bot? ;)

We already started to purge the forum. It's a tedious task though. We are trying to keep as much as possible the people who posted at least once. Our main targets are the bots who register massively on the forum and never are allowed to post. It's just tricky to differenciate bots with 0 posts to recent users with 0 posts, among 45,000+ accounts. However we already deleted nearly 20,000 accounts if you look at the counter at the bottom.

As long as you post or visit the forum more than once a year, you are safe ;). ImageImage

I was just making sure man, for all I knew you were Dwayne Johnson!

Now that I know that your legit and the real thing:

The Sun goes down,
The stars come out,
And all that counts is the internet,
Where hackers roam,
and spammers troll,
I'm glad you came,
So glad you came! Rest in Peace Fallout Online

Good decision. It is really nice to see gamesas up and running, and communicating with its community a little more.

Hi!
Im so lazy i hit the "quote" button instead of just typing it out. Learn a habit, it’s not wise to upset a mutie.
But sir, nobody worries about upsetting a Human.
That’s ‘cause Humans don’t eat people when they get irritable. Mutie’s are known to do that.
