The Library Society of the World

I mentioned this in the FriendFeed room as well. It looks like we’ve got some spam users registered on this site. While they haven’t (yet) been spamming with anything much but friend requests, I think it’s not the sort of thing we want to encourage, so I’m going to be going through and deleting accounts that are obviously spammy — accounts with nonsense or pr0n email or website domains, people with no apparent connection to librarianship who haven’t made any contributions, that sort of thing.

If I’m unsure, I’ll send you a private message to see what I can find out before I delete. I understand that not everyone can participate online under their real name or identity.

If I delete your account and you’re a real honest to God LSW person, please feel free to stone me with weeded reference books.

WordPress 3.0 and BuddyPress are fully installed and should be running smoothly, more or less!

If you already have an account on this site (Josh or someone else would have sent you information, in that case), your old login and password should work. If you don’t have one already, please go ahead and create one, and welcome on board! We have forums! You can make posts to the front of the site! You can give gifts, including LSW Badges!

Go crazy, and if you have any questions, please let me know. newrambler on gmail/gtalk or comment here is your best bet.

Not that you should feel compelled to discuss before making changes, but in case you want to, we’re doing a little bit of brainstorming about the site on the new wiki.
