Man it seems like there is a lot of crap that's running around the board the last few weeks

Is there any way we can add a section like the Traffic Trades/Gallery Requests ?? Have a Announcements section where people can tell us all about their new script/site/program/spam list/any other crap they care to sell/stuff ???

It would make coming to the board a whole lot more enjoyable if I could just not see most of that shit, along with the required blasting that happens back to the poor fool that originated the SPAM. Thanks.

I was gonna post much the same on how there's a lot of it lately. It's not just spam though - there's a lot of assholes banned for good reason leaping back in with different names and other idiots behaving like the 14 year olds they are under aliases.

Time for some rather late spring cleaning I think.

agreed.. the spam is getting out of hand

There's a reason for this.
When these little fuckers hear Im out of town and not around to make them into victums, they smell opportunity.

Well I think its time to have some fun, and set some more examples.

Before I left I was getting bored casue there were no spammers to fuck with.

Bout time they tried this shit around here again.

BP, give us some info. otherwise they'll keep coming back.

i want ip addresses, damnit @#%)(*%

Dont worry man, most of the time these guys are idiots and just dont know any better. They get warned first which is fair.

But if they keep doing it after being warned, its another thing, and hard to be excused. Chances are they'll get banned becasue they have no intention of anything but spam, and we have no use for them here.

The guy who posted the link with all the popup windows, and then called every idiots for clicking on it was banned.

I have to admit, my first post here was pretty much spam, a few days ago. Since then, though, I have been looking around the board, reading many recent threads and commenting where appropriate. Hopefully those of us who mention our own programs when they first show up aren't seen as all bad... as long as it isn't all we do. (Another point in my own defense, I posted partly in response to someone calling for goth content, which I have.)

Only one solution.
Russia should be disconnected from the internet

what's the best way to prevent being spammed?

A 2lb lump hammer and a couple of good hits onto the PC
