I have noticed that every night an account is made with two capital letters at the beginning of the username. When I click on the account to view the profile, I do not have permission. This has happened for about the last 6 days.
Tonights account is WOnu. This is the page I get every time I click one of the names http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/foru...er.php?u=58399 It is really strange tbh |

What if it's some sort of virus? maybe the admins should check it out!

I hate you all.

Me thinks you have too much time on your hands to notice things like this.
Might be forum bots.

Account Vacant

The reason the no permission page shows is because the account doesnt exist, have a look on the member list for it. It may just be a temporary account created by the Vbulletin program itself, in order to self test, check or monitor usuage.
It could also be a temporary account created to allow full access to the site for search engines. Or an in built sub routine to map the site at certain times for search engines. I am not sure if vbulletin deletes unactivated accounts after a set period, it could be the result of that as well. Last edited by Shasown; 07-03-2010 at 04:21 PM. |

It's a user account waiting approval. Probably a spammer.
