      You see it on wordPress and other blogs too. Just the nature of online registration.

      It's a sign of popularity, though!

        Could this be causing my posting issue?

          @g.jacobse that there are lots of idle users? I don't think so.

            AJ and I had discussed this a while ago. Not much to be done. Hundreds have been manually deleted. But they pour in. They don't hurt anything so not really a big deal.

                  The NodeBB platform has no capabilities, as I've been told, for a Captcha or email verification of account. As others have said, this is common on any online community. The difference between ML and some communities is that some advertising based on these numbers. ML just has a counter that cannot be modified. It's the difference between active and passive marketing.

                    New features are out now. We're dealing with more important issues now, though. With the 0.5.0-2 upgrade chat is broken and a few other bugs are really killing us. Trying to address that before we look at the new complex spam filtering options since the accounts don't impact anything. Not the squeaky wheel post-upgrade.
