We ONLY NEED one!!
The only way we can block username creation is by creating a look-up table. This has now been added to the look-up table, along with some other obvious replicas. If people only realised the amount of time and effort it takes, circumventing these kinds of actions, maybe....just maybe, they would think twice before doing it. This SINGLE issue alone (of the multiple webmaster*** user names and threads) has taken up nearly TWO hours of my time this evening.

Shaun.

At least it kept you off the street though
But all jokes apart, I'm sure you could have found better ways to fill those 2 hours

Personally I think the fake webmaster(s) is just a waste of time as Theo says.
When I too noticed the name in the title of thread I got confused/caught.
Please will some one like SDB or Theo remove the false names.....PLEASE. Its so bloomin annoying.
