You're not one of that Landover mob are you Nexia :rolleyes:?

gio~logist has been the only one so far who seems to get the gist of my question.

If my initial example were not removed, my question would have more clarity!

If someone is interested in answering my question, please, Google any of the usernames listed below

Zonzywza
ZerftgHyff
Yaqvdqsc
Xcfndoap
Amjnxwop

These usernames (and many others) are registered on 100's and 100's of forums (of numerous languages), all the registrations were actioned within a relatively short space of time, the member makes no posts, and does not revisit the forums again.

If anyone who reads this can succinctly answer my question as to why this happens, I would hugely appreciate it.

Cheers,

BUZ.

these are automated bots... these usernames are not from humans...

why is this so complicated to understand?

Those are automated registrations... those are bots... those are not humans who are viewing the page and then enter a random username by flicking their keyboards randomly... these are bots... there are not humans... these are programmed scripts that do a specific function.... these are not humans... these are bots...

p.s. these are not humans...

My apologies if I had to bludgeon you with the obvious :) Why are they the same? Coz they're using the same bot script - which obviously would generate the same "random" usernames ... if not, law of averages take over...

Why are they doing it? You mean, other than to spam the forum and generate hits? You got me there...

Are you looking for the correct explanation, or are you looking for an explanation that you can accept? Coz those are two different things... let us know what answer you want, and maybe one of us can humor you...

And by the way:What I quoted is the correct answer... if it's not the answer you want, then stick around some more and someone just might come up with a conspiracy theory more to your liking :)

Thank you :D.

Please post in English.

I did initially post a question in English.............Only to have a Moderator edit my post, move it from the correct forum, and then have two of this forums' Members attempt to mock me.

After all that effort to put a blanagram in my last post too!

Friendly place you guys got going on here.

lmao.


ZUB - There are bots that are sent out to thousands of forums and they do things such as create new accounts, most in an attempt to create spam or gain the access needed to gather information for spam.

Exmaple A: A bot is sent to register here on vb.org and then crawls through the site and picks up all of the emails from the programers who put it for donations.

Example B: A bot is sent to a male fitness forum to advertise pornography.

Since they are bots which go through thousands of forums, a lot of them have the same name.

That's what nex was trying to explain.

On the other hand
A lot of people just have a load of listings under their username simply because they've been surfing the internet and vbulletin forums for years now, and have built up a plethora of different accounts in time.

actually i got more than 4300 posts on this site... how much do you have?! oh, zero... you are not even licensed... tsss... you bare insulting me in french "parce que j'ai fait un rapport de tes insultes dans le message subs?quent"... and you try to push up to one limit because you do not want to understand our answers?!

this is just fun actually...

Common factor - Subjects in which more than often appear in similar situations.

Anyone up for some math?

Despite all the insults and sarcasm that flew around this thread, I sincerely hope the OP found his answer ;)
