boyst Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) I think 40 people are waiting in the queue and that is 10x more than usual. Any ideas? Myself, I do not know... but is there anything you would like us to look for? Any suspiscious activity? Could these be trolls? Could this be people getting 2 or 3 names? It does seem as though there are lot of newer members posting in certain threads in correlation to one another more so then normal. I sort of have my thoughts that some of the posts in many threads are the same person on a few different names. As always, thanks for the board!

MattyT Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) They want to view the attachment of the new unis in that "I know a guy who knows a guy" thread.

boyst Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 People like you? Was this directed at me??? I only have one name, even though I answer to many. Also, I guess it could be the uniforms. People have been hearing the hype around the internet and may register a name instead of registering an old name that they forgot. This is the kind of place that would have the scoop on the uniforms. That and all the Cam Newton banter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I think 40 people are waiting in the queue and that is 10x more than usual. Any ideas? A friend of mine, at my urging, registered for the site but was never sent a confirmation email. This was about two months ago. Is it possible that there was a glitch and that many pending registrants were held up for awhile and then suddenly and all at once delivered to the queue? I know he was disappointed that he couldn't post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aloha22 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I just registered today, but it was just out of the blue. So maybe I'm an outlier in the 40 people who were in the queue. Sorry I couldn't come up with an explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills_fan Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Unis. Current ones are so god awful that people are trying to see if they will be good (like the fan design in the Rosen thread) or garbage like the Nike ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockinon Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Check the website's security settings. Message boards are notorious for attracting spammers. Often a bot is used to auto register. Usually this can be defeated by implementing a captcha(that little extra field used where you have to type in random numbers and/or letters). I can't remember if TSW has one. Anyway it might just be that now the Superbowl is over people are looking toward the draft now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
