  • Anniversary!

    This incarnation of the board celebrates its first full year today!

    Thanks, everyone, we can't do this without you.

    As befits my vaguely amused stance on life, however, I'm planning a celebration of interesting note. We have a strict no advert policy, as you know, and we get commercial spammers from time to time. Three days ago, someone signed up to put some spam on our site, but thanks to the Trollguard dreamed up by Ree and implemented by MadMike, you didn't get to see it.

    The spammer left his email addresses:

    I don't expect anyone to reply to him directly. However, I would be very disappointed if those email addresses (apparently fairly fresh ones) didn't end up on every email list going and filled with spam. Not that I'm encouraging this, but he did try to leave those addresses out in the open.

    Caveat - do not send emails yourself - you'll be leaving yourself open to being spammed directly. Sign him up to anything and everything you like. Enjoy!

    1 year already? Wow. I remember when I first joined here. Out of curiosity has any version of the board lasted a year or more? I seem to remember reading of hacks happening every 6 months. But either way, I love this site as it's given me great sanity, great advice, and just great things in general.


    HAPPY 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CURRENT VERSION OF CUSTOMERS SUCK!

      Man I must be old. I remember about 2-4 hacks. Hopefully, I will never see another one on here. Raps, and everyone, keep doing a great job.

              The reputation of being a poor place for spammers to attempt to ply their filthy trade? Sounds like it would be good to me

                      Raps, I am an admin on an adult BBS site. If you want, I can send you a list of known spam email addresses that might help in keeping the dregs of society off your site. Let me know if you want them.

                        Thanks, but we don't do that badly for spammers - perhaps every four or five months at a guess. It just so happened that one of them struck a few days before the anniversary, so I decided to use the opportunity to amuse people.

                          No problem. If you ever decide you want them or need them, my email is in my profile. You folks and this site are awesome. If there's anything I can ever do or if you decide you need a semi-retired, overly-girthed mod, look me up.
