• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Warning Zero Posters

This morning I added the mother of all security features to keep bot's and hackers away. http://www.spambotsecurity.com/index.php It is recommended to delete zero posters and update our data base, this is for hidden or silent bot's, forum spammers, hackers who lay hidden amongst us.
.
Problem is, out of our 16,000 members, 12,000 have never posted.
.
If you have never posted here, please do so to keep your membership, ..... this is important to me, and to you, please do this simple task.
.
In 7 days your account will :pop4: from our data base.

Make your first post here, just click Post Reply and say hello ickie

Thank You
Ickie
 
To download files from SOH you have to log in first, therefore you have to register. Presumably the bulk of the 12,000 who haven't posted anything in the forums registered so they could download files.

Does this mean that anyone who regularly downloads but never posts will have to re-register every time they want to download a file?

No, just re-register once, my new scripts will keep them bots away, I will know new members are real humans.
.
If old zero posters are real humans, and would just make 1 post than they will not be deleted. ..................... simple.
 
Hello Ickie,

how are you doing these days? Is your post-surgery recovery going allright?

Even though I am rather busy these days and I do not post as frequently as before, I want to stay in touch with all SOH friends. Please leave my account active.

Cheers!

Hello Ickie, I was once active but may have lost posts due to various crashes over the last years. I see I have only one previous now. Please retain my membership. Thanks JB
