　　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 BeautifulPeople.com must pass a strict rating stage where existing users vote on whether someone is attractive enough to be accepted into the online community.

　　社交网站facebook、新浪微博等海量信息的社交平台变成我们日常生活有似乎是“不可或缺”的一部分，但是，本应是打着“平等交友”平台的各大社交网站中却冷不丁地冒出一个“只允许美女帅哥才能注册的”外貌限制社交网站，估计是这种“外貌歧视”的营销策略招惹了平民老百姓，日前，这个网站被黑客袭击，中了“怪物史莱克网络病毒”，导致网站允许上万“其貌不扬”的人士得以成功注册，这让经营网站的业内人士伤坏了脑筋。

　　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.

　　不可思议的是，网站的这个漏洞竟然维持了6个月才被发现，期间，网站系统不管注册者的外貌，自动“吸收”上万注册者。网站负责人Greg Hodge近日向3万名蒙受“不白之冤”的普通人致歉，承诺立即将他们的信息从网站中“剔除”。Greg Hodge说道：“我们网站的问题是逐步逐步才露出水面的，6个月来，网站的相貌平平的注册者越来越多，我们就开始感觉到问题闹大了。”

　　'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.'

　　网站负责人Greg Hodge还十分负责地向媒体解释他们的“挽救策略”，他说道：“我们当时的行动小组立即成立，并消除怪物史莱克病毒所造成的影响，我们降新增的会员都打了回去，让他们重新接受正规的选美流程，接受公平的竞争。这个病毒的影响是十分恶劣的，它让我们流失了3万多名正规会员。我们对那些误入网站的人士表达最最最诚挚的歉意，他们并不是长得难看，他们也是同样美貌的，只是进我们网站必须得需要经过一些必备的流程。”

　　BeautifulPeople.com 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.

　　据悉，这个只收帅哥美女的社交网站目前在全球有70万的会员，而进入网站的几率为1：7，那些“幸运儿”主要来自美国、丹麦以及法国的成功人士。有意思的是，在网站录取比率中，英国人竟然占了最高的“拒签率”，紧跟着的是俄罗斯以及波兰注册者。
