That's so crazy! You can see all the members!

There are so many at the front who have no names and registered in 1969

Do you understand what the userlist availability means? We can use it to find unknown users and help their stuff get more popular! Just search around a bit, and you can probably find someone with good potential and mentor them like some other users are already doing.

Why is that everyone knew about Lutz and never spoke of it! All the moderators ever mentioned are just cheddargirl, JSO, Lanie, and MyRedNeptune.
If I used the forums immediatly when I joined (I missed over a year of the action! ), I might have known Litz already.

I knew Lutz and I'm an 09er.

You got rid of it? What was wrong with it being available to everyone?
It has lots of uses, especially for gathering information for charts and things (this topic is an example). And I was using it to try and find the day I registered - when it was closed! At least I got a bit of information...
What was your reason for not letting everyone see it? I didn't see anything bad about the list...

When you publish a list of admins and mods, it's like a gift to a hacker. Now they know which accounts to try and crack. Sorry, but that is a security problem.

I thought the hackers could just browse the forums quickly and find a forum moderator or Scratch Team person... or they could look at the Annoucements forum.
Well, I suppose...

Some admins don't have any posts at all.
