Probably spamming. It's likely the posts were deleted.

I won't be surprise if more spammers (or scammers) are coming here as NB is growing every day to become a big community, I guess that's a problem every forum has to face.

It is becoming very big problem, that is why we at OW make members by moderation, and honestly on an average we reject about 10 members every day.

G!

At PureTalkForum.com I have setup moderation for new members :
Nothing they do is visible until they have at least one post approved by myself, or my staff.

Most features are not accessible until a user has made 10 legitimate posts.

cdef001 is a spam bot. You aren't seeing any associated posts because all of this bots posts were deleted when the ban was implemented.

While only two real people have been banned in the 10 months we've been around, there have been quite a few spam bots banned.
