ok, I'm slow just thought I'd mention it just in case

ELA 02-04-2010 07:15 PM

I got the PM from XandderrMan as well.

Kasept 02-04-2010 07:29 PM

As I've written, I'm at a loss to prevent these but am now exploring how PM use can be restricted until restrants are approved.

Set the minimum post count to 10 or 20 for private messaging privileges.

Interesting choice of words considering I know you know what kind of PMs float around here

Darn - I thought I had a secret admirer!

Sightseek 02-07-2010 06:45 PM

Razzorr Man is a spammer too.
 
Just a heads up.

AeWingnut 02-07-2010 06:48 PM

Please take into account
 
I got the message also

they are persistant

Danzig 02-07-2010 06:56 PM

yeah, got two pms from him. a shame that someone has such a pathetic life. must suck to be him!

Princess Doreen 02-07-2010 07:07 PM

Yup, me too. It's a PITA to log back into the forum only to find out some jerk is practicing jerkism and probably typing with one hand, too.

Sorry - I'm bad.

lol
don't apologize for being bad ever.

Kasept 02-07-2010 07:16 PM

Pretty irksome situation. I am blocking IP and Email addresses based on the activity of them, but this is the 3rd different entity. Still working on not allowing new but unapproved registrants access to the PM system. That's the long term solution.

Sorry for the annoyance.

Kasept 02-07-2010 07:33 PM

I think I just figured out how to change a setting that will prevent unapproved registrants from PMing!! I'm confident that will end this problem...

Steve, we all appreciate your efforts here, but really, it could have waited until the end of the game!

ELA 02-07-2010 08:50 PM

Just got the same PM.

'Just got'? Time stamped when? Because Razzorr account was deleted more than an hour ago.

Can you tell if my computer has a virus?
 
I've been getting private messages saying:
"Hello, friend. There are viruses' activities from your computer in last few days."
All I do is occasionally post without links, pictures, etc. The PMs have a link.

letswastemoney 02-11-2010 12:22 AM

Sounds like an ad trying to get you to click on something, probably a naughty site of some sort

Don't click on the link in the PM.
