Maybe we can end all this spam.

[Denny]

If we all got together and started casting voodoo death spells on these morons we could end this drive on or beloved forum! Where’s Itsid when we need him!

Lol not what I was expecting.

That's your problem right there, you expected something (probably highfalutin) from Denny.

This crap is crazy. Something had to have happened after the problem a couple of weeks ago when nobody could get on. Now its just page after page of stuff that I don't think ANYONE would read. I am really worried that the forum won't be here much longer. Obviously, no-one is watching the store. We've become a dumping ground for, hell , I don't even know what to call it. Spam seems like too nice of a description.

 

[Hellion]

Well said, Pancho. I feel the same now that you put it that way. It will kill this place, especially for all the new blood who are joining daily and drive away the currently active oldsters like us.

 

[Master Hack]

Agreed! What can done to stop it? Does it take a 24/7 bouncer?
l don't know enough about it...

I wish I was more puter literate, I would love to help. But I’m an analog guy in a digital world.

You're plenty literate and an analog fella wouldn't be here, he'd be Amish. You're digital, you found your way here, you know how to post replies, post photos, post links, tweak your account settings....

You would know enough to moderate if given the privilege. It's pretty simple, it's like being a bonus level forum member and you can muddle your way through. You can edit or delete any post, delete entire threads (a bit severe) ban problematic people for a week and/or lock them out of their account (prevent login) or get into their account page and see their IP address and where/what country they are posting from and ban the IP. They'd try to view the forum but there's like a blank page place holder and that's all they would have access to. There's different options I'm sure, depending on the forum/forum software.

Blah blah blah.

Denny for moderator! Problem is, it would probably get very old, very quick and take up a lot of your time... It burned out Itsid right?

 

[ezcome-ezgo]

Makes you wonder why there are people who are behind something like this. It doesn't work as marketing and essentially ruins the tools they want or need to sell their "product".

 

[Denny]

I couldn’t post a link to save my life. I’ve lived my whole life by being irresponsible, I couldn’t handle the pressure. Besides I’m dyslexic.
I have sacrificed a cow (ok only a cheeseburger) to the gods to end this siege we have been under here. If necessary I’m willing to sacrifice some more.

Hope this helps, "brother Moderator"!

 

[Denny]

I would have sacrificed a chicken, but I hate chicken. And don’t call me a moderator.

 

[Kartorbust]

I had DM'd Landuse, Anderkart and Robert last night. Landuse and Anderkart have been cleaning up. All we can do is just keep reporting. They have contacted Robert as well. It's a lot better now.

Wonder if some of this is stuff from Bot accounts over on Twitter that keep getting banned and they started attacking this place? Ol' Poboy would be having a field day.

 

[Hellion]

And don’t call me a moderator.

Surely you can't be serious.

 

[Hellion]

I had DM'd Landuse, Anderkart

I did the same for those two, but glad there was more than one message from more than one person as it adds weight and urgency. Thanks brother for stepping in/stepping up!

They apparently used the nuclear option!
