Couldn't resist, could you. Ok, now that I have your attention. If you are not on the Techzonez Frapper map, do it now. It only takes a minute and it gives us a chance to see where people are from. LINK (http://www.frappr.com/techzonez)

langstonI think Tinker or whoever is the admin of the Frappr page should go through the list and remove non-members.

I may be overruled on this, but I don't see a problem. We have over 15,000 members. It would be a big task to validate every new entry on the map. And these people were led to the map from reading this post.

The two positive reasons I see in the map is to see where our TZ friends are and it can be a visible indicator as to TZ's popularity. I see no problem if extra people show up on the map. There is room for everyone and they may become members later.

I would be happier if it was a member only thing but as long as they're not bots or something it's alright. I was just worried about the sudden surge in the number of names without any location info :D

Update: I just opened my eyes a little and found proof of these people being spam bots. Look at the comments in the 'Recent Shoutouts', efc :p

You're right. I don't know how you police this.

Maybe not all is lost. I wonder if they might provide us with a member discount for viagra. :D

Do you remember who created the page? I think it was Tinker. We'll have to ask whoever created the Frappr pge to moderate it.
