Default Accounts created solely to keep track of all anime will be deleted

Hello, recently I've been noticing several people registering just to mark everything as watched - presumably because they are curious as to what the max life on anime is. As we already have one person tracking this (username: EverythingWatched), more people registering to do this just wastes bandwidth and space, and is pointless.

So, moving forward, accounts found to be doing this will be removed - please use EverythingWatched as a reference point if you want to see how much anime is available via the anirec.

I wonder if it'd be a good idea to link that everythingwatched acct on the front page somewhere, "to see just how much anime we have, click HERE!"

yeah im gonna link it in a few places... there will be a note on the registration page saying something like STOP, are you registering just to see how much anime there is? use tihs instead, and maybe a few other places too.

Ouch, that is pretty lame someone would just randomly check that they have seen every anime ever aired. IP ban would be the best idea if that is possible.

ip ban is useless and annoying. my ip changes automatically every 24h and i can get another ip whenever i want. so an ip ban would stop me nor anyone else, instead annoy people when they get a already banned ip :P

I wonder what goes on in people's minds to do that.
I mean I'm not gonna lie, there is a lot of stuff out there I wouldn't watch if you paid me, haha.

Well, I hope people wise up, it's stuff like that that ends up ruining others experiences.

I don't see how it ruins other people's experience except for maybe when people try to sign up and the name they want is already taken because of it.
