Don't look now: Website for 'beautiful people' hit by virus that allowed ugly applicants to sign up

A social networking site for 'beautiful' people has been hit by a Shrek virus which allowed tens of thousands of ugly applicants to sign up. Members of must pass a strict rating stage where existing users vote on whether someone is attractive enough to be accepted into the online community.

社交網站facebook、新浪微博等海量信息的社交平臺變成我們日常生活有似乎是“不可或缺”的一部分，但是，本應是打着“平等交友”平臺的各大社交網站中卻冷不丁地冒出一個“只允許美女帥哥才能註冊的”外貌限制社交網站，估計是這種“外貌歧視”的營銷策略招惹了平民老百姓，日前，這個網站被黑客襲擊，中了“怪物史萊克網絡病毒”，導致網站允許上萬“其貌不揚”的人士得以成功註冊，這讓經營網站的業內人士傷壞了腦筋。

But this screening process was brought down last month, allowing anyone to join, regardless of their looks. Owners today apologised to more than 30,000 unfortunate people who were wrongly admitted to the site and subsequently banished. 'We got suspicious when tens of thousands of new members were accepted over a six-week period, many of whom were no oil painting,' managing director Greg Hodge said.

不可思議的是，網站的這個漏洞竟然維持了6個月才被發現，期間，網站系統不管註冊者的外貌，自動“吸收”上萬註冊者。網站負責人Greg Hodge近日向3萬名蒙受“不白之冤”的普通人致歉，承諾立即將他們的信息從網站中“剔除”。Greg Hodge說道：“我們網站的問題是逐步逐步才露出水面的，6個月來，網站的相貌平平的註冊者越來越多，我們就開始感覺到問題鬧大了。”

'We responded immediately, repairing the damage from the Shrek virus and putting every new member back into the rating module for a legitimate and democratic vote. The result is that we have lost over 30,000 recent members.'We have sincere regret for the unfortunate people who were wrongly admitted to the site and who believed, albeit for a short while, that they were beautiful.'

網站負責人Greg Hodge還十分負責地向媒體解釋他們的“挽救策略”，他說道：“我們當時的行動小組立即成立，並消除怪物史萊克病毒所造成的影響，我們降新增的會員都打了回去，讓他們重新接受正規的選美流程，接受公平的競爭。這個病毒的影響是十分惡劣的，它讓我們流失了3萬多名正規會員。我們對那些誤入網站的人士表達最最最誠摯的歉意，他們並不是長得難看，他們也是同樣美貌的，只是進我們網站必須得需要經過一些必備的流程。”

has more than 700,000 members worldwide. On average one in seven applicants is accepted. The majority of successful new members come from the USA, Denmark and France, it claims The UK is among the countries with the highest rate of rejections, alongside Russia and Poland.

據悉，這個只收帥哥美女的社交網站目前在全球有70萬的會員，而進入網站的機率爲1：7，那些“幸運兒”主要來自美國、丹麥以及法國的成功人士。有意思的是，在網站錄取比率中，英國人竟然佔了最高的“拒籤率”，緊跟着的是俄羅斯以及波蘭註冊者。
