Knickers is right. Ignore them. And I am more fun. I never bite, though. My dog does, but only if you have rubles in your pocket Razz


I guess I must be safe around your dog because I never have any rubles in my pocket. Very Happy I haven't been to Russia yet and my Russian clients here typically only pay me with dollars although in the past several months I have been lucky enough to receive a bottle of Russian vodka along with a box of chocolates from Moscow and even some samples of Russian black caviar. Cool

Back on topic here, I just noticed that a thread was posted about 15 minutes ago over in the Business Ideas & Solutions Forum that is obviously SPAM and it looks like no one has opened it yet. Good job everyone. Cool

Unfortunately after about 13 hours this thread (Funny or hot videos) hasn't been deleted and has been opened 15 times. There are also at least two more new threads that appear to be SPAM that will hopefully be deleted soon.

The spam is getting rather overwhelming. I end up clearing up so much spam posts that I just don't feel like reading or writing other posts or moderating other parts or take care of other issues of the forum... Sad I think it's high time the forum software gets upgraded.

That will be yorbcbud. He likes funny and dreams about hot. I agree with you that 15 times is a bit over the top.
If he keeps it up he will go blind soon.

Just ignore and it will go away. PMing mods over this is effectively creating more spam for them.


"Spasibo" for helping to explain the SPAM policy of this message board to me. Over on another message board that I frequent, the moderators there encourage members to PM them immediately about any SPAM you see so that they can delete it ASAP. In any event, I'm relatively new here and will most definitely respect the policy here of simply ignoring SPAM.


I appreciate that. If people would start PM-ing us about spam, it would just flood our inboxes. For me, as I am not going to check up especially for a spam post, it would be another piece of useless information. Very similar to spam Wink It just creates extra posts that we have to check up on. Which means we will be more likely to oversee important matters aboard.

C'mon Knickers this is a feedback thread. Don't post these droppings here. There are a couple silly threads. Do it there. Otherwise things will get Baaaaaad for you around here. Smile

Don't do it. We know about the situation and we remove spam as soon as we see it. There is no need for you to point them out to us. Spammers do not read your replies or insults, and in replying to spam, you are spamming as well.

IGNORE SPAM POSTS!

We could even consider a thread like this one as a piece of spam :O
