New submission from Eric Kow <eric.kow at gmail.com>:

If you look at the list of users, you will notice that a lot of them are
spambots or spampuppets.  Two problems:

1. it makes functionality like 'Assigned To' harder to use (have to scroll past
all the junk users)
2. the alternate-address feature on their user page gives them a place to link
to their sites, garnering a pagerank boost (took me a while to figure out what
they were after)

We need somebody with access to the db to delete the users.
