Hello Tsehp :-)

I have just noticed the logging of the number of times a given thread is read.

IMHO, A troller could use this info to sort out the interests of this community.

I could give examples on this, but I am sure you understand what i mean.

Nuke it if you can, if the majority agrees.

Whoah, now I know exactly how many of them are in the "know how" bussines, let's see if we can categorize them, Said Dr.EvilMon.

After reading several posts, with variying content (i.e. "anounce: new tool", "help, nag screen", "where can I get FlexLM sdk", "MSDN docs, where?", etc.)
Dr. EvilMon estimates the average of programmers/newbies/+reversers in this board, and uses this knowledge to create his own `skined' posts, to further fish more info.

I understand what you're meaning, the problem is that if I follow this,
I'm oblidged to also remove the members menu, disable the possibility for members to register also, he can use teleport to get all the messages an scan them to see some resulting from registered members.
Then the troll comes here and begin to mess with the messageboard,
then the four moderators here decide to ban the user,no more posts.
Or he tries, like golem to destroy the mb and reports our provider of criminal activities, like this happened 4-5 weeks ago, no results with this. Even if this happens, I can reconstruct ths place elsewhere in less than one hour, only the domain changes and everything stays the same.

Finally he tries to build a better mb than this one, I think people will move if they find a real interest to do that, meaning that they could learn better, have more docs or essays or something else.
Ok I'll learn then what is really missing here, I just can add the features required for people to stay here. My purpose was to rebuild a good place to stay, without trollers and useless and boring messages,
I choosed this script for this purpose and the result is here : I only had to delete 3 crack requests since this mb started, a question even from a newbie is answered in less than two days, people really collaborate here. I think they know that this time we wanted this place to be a reliable one, with all their typing work to stay, be backed up and never disappear.
Maybe something else could happen, but I'm not alone to support this place, you have Sandman, Carpathia, Disavowed, Amante4, Disavowed and Fravia, all of us are motivated to make this a place to stay.
Best regards,
