View Full Version : This whole 'free nice pics' thing

Unfortunately, since they're posting as a guest I can't ban them, and I can't ban their ip either because they're posting as a guest and so I can't see it. Even if they were posting as a member, I get the idea that the ip would be different each time.
Please just ignore the 'free nice pics' posts, and do NOT try to click on the links inside.

... you guys, you do realise that when you're replying to the spam threads it makes it harder for me to delete, and also it makes it less obvious for me to notice that they're even there. If the 'last post' is a forum member, rather than "Drzzaaapzm" in black text, I don't see it as quickly.
Just don't go into the threads at all if they seem dodgy. A real guest member will not have 'free nice pics' or 'free medicine' or 'is your genitalia big enough to please an elephant?' as a thread title.
I know it's fun to respond to them, but that's also just a waste of time, they're not going to see it.

I didn't know. Also I found it incredibly and completely offensive. MUCH MUCH worse than normal spam.

Yes, it is extremely offensive. But they don't come back to read your responses. Just DON'T CLICK THE LINKS.

It's something that I can't prevent right now.

My family has an email account, and very little of the email is actually genuine email we want to get. The rest has the subject headings that Tundra described, and more graphic as in sick ones then that.

I am disturbed by the number of threadviews the latest "free nice pics" has. :pale:

Don't pay much attention to that. I'm one of them; I open it to mark it read, then close it (without reading it, naturally). I like knowing when this board has new posts that I might actually want to read, and that requires that the new post icon not be present just because I don't want to touch a certain post.

in the right corner there is a link saying "mark all threads read". Click that, and i'tll make the orange go away.

I know, and I use that when I think to.
