Bouncers: green usernames

thomas · 29 Sep 2004

Due to the large number of invalid, thus bouncing email accounts I have created a new usergroup: BOUNCERS. They can easily be distinguished by their green usernames:

Evil Bouncer

Bouncers cannot post until they update their profile. Once they have entered a VALID email address, they need to send a PM to one of the admins who will in turn re-activate their accounts.

Thanks for your understanding.

lol should call them "invalids"

bouncer sounds like a big mean guy at a club that throws you out...

I just thought of the alternative -- "Evil Invalids!" That sounds really funny too!!

Let's face it, they are funny any way you write it!!

Yeah, I thought that we were getting a new usergroup just to ban people.

Hummm???

Do they show up in the member's list that way, or just under the posts section?

Frank

:?

Nice initiative!! I was wondering why one member came up with the green colour earlier under current online members...Now I know!

Eventually, yes. We currently have 560 unconfirmed accounts at the forum. In the light of the current server issues I see no reason why we should keep them in the DB just to inflate the member list artificially.

Yes, Frank, they do: example

Hehe, I know, but I got to like that denomination...

Anyhow, evil bouncers who would like their account to be re-activated can also contact us through

bounce at jref.com

(replace the 'at' with @ and use without spaces)

Somehow doesn't sound politically correct...

Lina Inverse · 30 Sep 2004

Ah, so that's the deal with the green usernames...
however - am I the only one who thinks "green" and "evil" (or other bad stuff) are exact opposites?
I think they should have bright red user names!

I know! I think that's what made me laugh so hard about it! Must be my warped sense of humor.

Let me reiterate: the usergroup is called "bouncers". The 'evil' attribute was just an ironical exaggeration...

Disclaimer: the green colour has no symbolic significance and should therefore not be misinterpreted as anti-environmentalist or - may God forbid - anti-Islamic statement.

Thank you.

I saw one, thereisnospoon, i think that was him and was wondering why he has a green name. I was like, "I want one!!!! but Blue!" But good ideal for the group Unswerving Bicyclist

You're right, Esca. I saw him too! It was funny because we were just talking about "the people in green." I know he's posted around here lately, so maybe he just hasn't updated his email.

He probably just changed his email address and forgot to update.

Ok dude... let's see if you have just a big mouth, or if you really mean it.
If you really are Mr. Pink, use this pink version of your avatar I made for you.

Haha.. Are you insane? For one, That's Hot Pink, I said I like light pink.. And second, It's hideous.. Heh.. If it wasn't so ugly I would use it.. Plus it takes away from the mood of the avatar.. It's better without it.. I'll find my own pink avatar when I feel like not using my current one.. That one you made is just freakish.. Haha..

Hey, you're the insane one who said you liked pink, not me

Glenn · 1 Oct 2004

So liking pink is equivalent with insanity now?
