I saw 24-birthdays today, so out of curiosity for the first time I clicked on all of them and I'd have to say judging from what I saw of those with zero-post count and a direct link in their sig to either a porno site or a pharmaceutical, that maybe, just maybe two or three legit posters are actually celebrating their birthday today. What does this mean? Nothing really so long as these bots can't spam, but it would sure be nice to have an algorithm which deleted 0-posting accounts with links in their sig or description to porno or pharmaceutical sites. Why would this be nice? To see which posters are actually celebrating birthdays and to clear up some space in the memory, although, I really don't know how much space a single profile uses up, but thousands of bogus ones? Maybe the concept to remove them [bot created accounts] is baseless so long as they don't post, but I still find them annoying.
