Why are there so many new users?

There is a suspicious amount of newbies running around on here. Some are causing some serious problems and asking stupid questions. Are these the same assholes, who keep coming back to the site, that have been banned over and over and over again?

 

seems like there's always been a lot of noobs here at any given time. i'm sure some are the returning banned, and some are just noobs.

probably a higher percentage of posters are new, since most of the old posters were banned.

 

Just because the old posters were banned, that doesn't mean that they can't disguise themselves with new user names. I'm sure a lot of them are actually new posters, but I just get the feeling that I've been talking to the same assholes under about seven different user names. Some people need to get a life or get a clue. . . or something, lol.

 

yeah, that's what i meant by "the returning banned."

in my second point, i should have said a higher percentage of accounts are new, since there's fewer old accounts and the new accounts include both new people and people coming back with new names.

 

I knew what you meant, dear. I think I need to stop posting on here when I'm on uppers, lol. I'm not even making sense to myself right now.

 

I always found that fall is a time when a lot of people join forums. I think for most we are indoors more and have time to kill.

Never really thought that they might be return players. Guess it never really mattered much to me.

I guess it is a good way to start over if someone wished too. Cool.

 

I haven't recognized anyone, but then again I am not very observant. I agree with Heat that people seem to join in the fall.

 

I'm sorry, I don't know how to age any faster

 

sorry for being new

 

I'm not sorry for being new

 

At what point am I no longer considered a newbie?

 

Newbies are not longer newbies after someone replies to their posts.

Welcome to all friends.

 

The site needs new members. Just to keep this place going. The same conversations with the same people for months n months gets old fast.

 

Yay! And i thought I was still a newbie this whole time.

 

Everyone is new at one point or another...

 

it seems like a few years ago this place was a lot more active... all the good old posters are gone... like SoaringEagle and PressedRat come to mind... not neccesarily peoplem I agree with, but people who just aren't around anymore... what happened to all the oldies?

 

People left for various reasons. If you want to know why someone leaves you should ask them instead of posting discussions that are destined to bend rules.
