I've been wondering... Would it be useful if I'd write a script for the moderators that automatically deletes all posts by a specified user?
Maybe it already exists though. :p

Seriously, I think you would make a great mod here LF.

Script is built into forum, all I do is click boxes to show all posts and delete them, and no offense to anyone but with the amount of activity we have here now we don't even need the amount of mods we currently have, a few years ago we were all working a lot, not so much now unfortunately, delete spam bots, move a topic now and then and occasionally police some slight arguments is about all we have to do. Unfortunately there is only so much that can be said about a band where 2 of 4(5) members are dead and an album hasn't been released in well over a decade (and very, very little hope of a new one). And yeah, we get some new people who have discovered the band and are excited but typically after a year or so they get excited about something else and move on. Unfortunately as well it appears Floyd attracts "rebels" who don't like to play nice, lol, so a few "revolts" have occurred here over the years which has inevitably ran off some who didn't want to read the childishness and silly posts. It's a shame but seems to be reality not many are left here anymore.

I passed my test today, and it was terrible

You passed it, but it was terrible?

Uhh...I took my test today, and it was terrible

You know, as nice as the blue skies and sunshine is, I would love it if it was a trifle bit cooler than 85 degrees. Granted it could be a lot warmer, but it could also be a lot cooler. 70 would feel divine.

Childishness?! Sir, you have insulted my honour.

You know what this forum needs? A good conspiracy to attract new visitors. Let's spread the rumour that Pink Floyd is reuniting to release a new album.

There, problem solved.
