I've had to write this on a new thread because I refuse point blank to bump one of the irritating 'sales' threads to the top again!

Grrrr! These things annoy the hell out of me! They clutter up the page and make it look untidy, and can I also point out that they hardly come under 'general chit chat'

Now that my rant is over - can I politely ask if an invigilator (sp) can delete these at all?

we used to have delete ability...don't anymore. all we can do is hit the report button. i have PMed complete insults to both spammers. ....

Sorry about bumping up the thread, you idea was better, I won't go near it again, even if I am trying to sell this spare Nuclear Accelerator to Snooze! :wah:

I guess Tombstone's troll patrol discussion group is just that ........ discussion. :yh_frustr



I'm tempted to pm all the members of that group. :yh_idea

Okay we have another one, this is not acceptable, we need to do something.

oh goody, looking for your pm...........so far, we have not been given authority to delete.....as far as I know.:-2

Oh that is partly my fault about keeping these threads running, sorry, I shall stop it!

last year admin asked us to not reply to spam. so i don't, i just PM them really nasty threats:wah: .

Well if you did that again today LC, it seems to have done the trick, whatever you said must really have sent them running!! :wah:

I pm'd the 10 people who've been members of that group the longest: Tombstone, Koan, Zinky, Abbye, Bryn, Sheryl, YZGI, Tmbsgirl, Che, & SuzyB. Ten is all the pm function allows at one time.

Good. Somebody acted.

Quite true, I accept full responsibilty on my own! :yh_devil

i remember those Arnie! they were beyond gross! :yh_sick

That must have happened before I joined. Certainly glad they were removed quickly, because nobody wants to see that stuff being posted here.

You can do more than that, if you can trace the user's account or web-site. You

can report the post, includind details and URL, to their ISP - terms of use are

passed "down the line" - so, if the post contravenes FG's terms, it will normally

contravene the ISP's terms, and get the spammer TOS'ed. This also works well

for e-mails of the 419/Nigerian scam or "Make Money Fast" type. Enjoy!
