    One is likely a spammer, two are duals, and one is likely real.

    Yeah, two of those are my duals I use when I'm testing out a feature or something on the board.

    I figured as much, but out of the first three pages of members, 90+ percent have never posted.

    Some of them are probably people who signed up to check something out, but ended up not sticking around. I see that a lot. Most of them are probably spammers who got caught before they could do anything. Xenforo's software doesn't delete their account, it just makes them defunct.

    There was one person who signed up to ask a question about some photos that were posted several years ago, wanting to use them in a book.

    Welcome. We're not actually the buttheads we pretend to be in the Red Room. That's just for f...un and chuckles. (That doesn't really have the same zing as the phrase I was going to use, but you probably get the idea.)
