Re: Suspicious notes and users
Other question: how can a profile with zero hits have a "hits" tab, and even show one hit there?

Here's a similar case: profile indicates 9 hits but hits tab shows 18.

Re: Suspicious notes and users
Same here.
Only one hit indicated. But there are two hits in the list.

Re: Suspicious notes and users
A user can ask to show only the hits he/she finds interesting. Could that be the case?
Re: Suspicious notes and users
No. Because if so, would be most hit in the profile and less in the list.groentje wrote:A user can ask to show only the hits he/she finds interesting. Could that be the case?

Re: Suspicious notes and users
Obviously there is a little bug in the system...nothing major in my mind and surely can be fixed in a next update.

Re: Suspicious notes and users
I wouldn't be too surprized if Nova Gorica sees a lot of Italians shopping in cheaper Slovenia, rspecially those who live nearby. Thousands of Belgians go shopping in Northern France, Auchan is almost as well known here, as it is there...

In principle this is totally reasonable explanation (Nova Gorica is also a popular casino resort), but both users entered only a couple of notes, the hit note being entered on the day each of them joined ...groentje wrote:I wouldn't be too surprized if Nova Gorica sees a lot of Italians shopping in cheaper Slovenia, rspecially those who live nearby.

Re: Suspicious notes and users
I wish that was true. But the truth is food in Italy is cheaper. Slovenians living near the border go shopping in Italy.groentje wrote:I wouldn't be too surprized if Nova Gorica sees a lot of Italians shopping in cheaper Slovenia, rspecially those who live nearby.

Re: Suspicious notes and users
Here, it depends. Beer and cigarettes are cheaper in Belgium, water, cheese, wine... are cheaper in France. So Belgians go shopping in France, and the French come here.

And now some major cleanings:
Dr. Westphall (164417): 28231 notes deleted
Jernke (165000): 12925 notes
dolff (165027): 13037 notes
Derick (165030): 12068 notes
pie56vmrd (165031): 13221 notes

18p5i25 (165988): 5270 notes
rykfass (166181): 5916 notes
I don't know how much time it takes to create such an amount of fake notes, all i know is, that the cleaning of such notes takes us only some seconds.
