Miserable User Edit Meaning

1.

"Miserable User" is the name of a hack for Virtual Bulletin message boards. An admin can set a poster to that status to encourage the poster to leave the board.

Here is what happens to a miserable user:

- There is a random 60-120 second delay each time they click on a link.

- 90% of times they have no search engine acccess.

- 75% of the times they get the server too busy error.

If they don't get the server too busy error:

- 50% of the times they may get a blank page

- 30% of the times they may get forwarded to the forum main page

- 20% of the time they may be able to see the page they asked for.

Miserable User is a fate worse than permabanning.
