‘Scrap­ers’ though? What fresh hor­ror is this?

:)........Scrapers and email harvesters are automated bots that crawl your website looking for content and email addresses respectively. Additionally there are human user profile spammers that will cause load on the server trying to register to get backlinks.

All this can cause load on your server, slowing it down and eventually disconnecting mysql.

It could also just be the sites getting popular

I know this is off topic, but didn't think it worth its on thread.

How come some posters, according to the members list have apparently made a negative number of posts? Are they magic? :conf:

And if you (facilitators) continue to ignore me, I shall assume it's because I've stumbled on some dastardly conspiracy!!! And believe me, I WILL embroider it and spread it around t'internet.

If a sock is banned with one post and said post is deleted does it notch up as a negative post?

:dunno: I'd have thought it'd just be deducted from the sock's username's post count ...+ 1 post, delete so - 1 post = nil posts.

Would a facilitator please create a sock, troll a few threads, then ban themselves and delete the posts so we can resolve this mystery? :scotty:

Thank you. :bash:

So, here's another question for the facilitating team. :)

I've only asked it 3 or so times before - don't split your breeches in your rush to answer, or anything.

Can you see the 'before' and 'after' versions of edited posts?

Don't think so, just deleted ones. That's why Nov edits then deletes.

Oh sorry - that rings a bell now that you've said it, so it probably was the answer and I just wasn't paying attention! :emb:
