Hopefully boring enough for you all.

Not a question I thought I'd ever see on the net, but might as well give a thorough answer.

A spammer is a person or company that floods the net, via email or message boards, with unwanted and generally annoying advertising. This is why email programs have spam filters. This is why forums like this have a registration and verification process for new members and limit the activities of new members for a certain number of posts.

Because new members here can't post links right away, a spammer will need to generate several posts before they can post a link to their unwanted sales pitch. They don't really care what's in the post which is why it's just a snub copy of another post. They are also busy spamming many other sites with a flood of these posts, so the posts are actually made by spam-bots.

To answer the question, a spammer is the scum-sucking, bottom-feeding parasite of the internet that needs to be neutralized and eliminated as quickly as possible.

Thanks Dave for a very thorough description.

So, what should I do when I come across one? I usually use my sense of humor to quickly pass over it. Should I use a different strategy?

In the top right corner of the spammer's post, click on the red and white triangle with the exclamation point. This will give you the opportunity to report that post to the mods. Just write "spammer" or something in the message field and when you reply, the mods and admins will take care of the rest.

Remember, finding and reporting spammers is a race. If you want to win, you have to be able to identify a spammer and report him in two minutes or less.

And Dave, you now owe us a vintage shot of yourself!

To be honest, I don't really have any vintage photos of myself. Certainly nothing in a digital format anyway. Maybe my mom has some old pics or something. One thing's for sure, NO pic of me is EVER going to be as cool as that pic of you.

 

[Davemcc]

Nothing too interesting now. I got this thread idea from another

See Bob, I reported this guy within one minute and he only got one post in.

But aren't they already identified even before I can report them?

That's what scanners are for!

C'mon, Dave. Put one up. I double-dirty-dawg-dare ya. No wussin' out on this. Mine was 40 years old. Let's see something equivalent.

Ok, I did not know before what that all means. My guess was that to become a new member, you have to post five posts in a certain predetermined area, or more exactly in a practice thread.

Now, I did catch about three dozens or more in the last month or so, of these type of posts, because I read the Forums very late at night, often when I'm quiet and well focused.

Do I earn red chicklets for that? Is that boring or what?

I should post up an destroooyyyyeed picture or two from back in the day. I'ma sift and see what I can find haha

I ordered some tire cleaner.

Okay, here's something else for Alex's Internet Stalker Notebook. Does the look fit my libertarian politics?

And Dave, you now owe us a vintage shot of yourself!

Even though I'm not sure what a libertarian is, I'm pretty sure that I don't care.

Dave doesn't want people to know he was bald at the age of 12.

RJ,

Even Abby Hoffman shaved. Haircuts didn't go so smooth.

Here's my contribution to the really bizarre. Yeah that's me.

At least there were girls ...

Forty years ago, I was three years old. I think my mom has a picture of me and my brothers in the bathtub from about that era, but these days it would probably get me arrested for kiddie porn.

But really, I have eschewed photographs my whole life. I generally leave any room where I happen to see a camera. I have few, if any of my childhood pics. I might be able to get my mom to dig one up.

I can't tell...are you wearing sandals or flip flops???

Pineapple Express

Saul: "Let's roll, man. I'm done with the woods. Let's go! C'mon, man, let's get the f*ck outta here!"

Dale Denton: [sarcastically] "Okay... Uhh let's go... No... It's not working... the battery's dead."

Saul: "Wait...! What do you mean, it's dead?"

Dale Denton: [laughing] "What do I mean? I mean the battery's dead. The battery's dead!"

Saul: "No, no! What do you mean, the battery's dead?"

Dale Denton: "How can I explain this to you differently? The battery is dead. It ceased to live. It's deceased now. The car needs a battery to start, Saul."

Saul: [frustrated sigh] "How did this happen?"

Dale Denton: "Well we clearly fell asleep with the battery on and-..."

Saul: "Ah, man... Talk radio?"

Dale Denton: "Yes, talk radio."

Saul: "So BORING, man! The car just committed suicide."

Probably one of each but that dance thing kept me in the company of 'older' girls all through my teens. Probably not what I needed but I liked the parties and the night clubs. A few times a year we would do out of town performances that had me sleeping 3 to a bed with a couple of girls which was kind of a big thing at that age. I use to have to 'be cool' about it like it was no big deal but it was.

The girls said it was no big deal to them...not big at all.


Ohhhh...you had to see that coming.
