Myrddin said Blimey! on the first page of off-topic too I wish I could start a new thread that has 1000+ pages, that would be amazing If you calculate the 1468 pages of posts and base it off of the 16 posts per page (averaged off of first page), that would make an approximate 23,488 posts :shock: Quote deviantART | Paint.NET Gallery | bennettfrazier.com <-- (My new Website!)

Crazy Man Dan 19 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Did you read the Global Announcement Dave put at the top of every board?

ShK_828 0 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 my apologies, it's pretty wierd though and i would use the *embarassed* emote, but alas, that is disabled. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
survulus 0 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I dnno, maybe we'll get used to random image code representing our emotions instead of smilies, then when they return we'll be really confused... probably not though Quote Check out all my newest stuff on my dA I iz bassist here Link to post Share on other sites
oma 28 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I'm totally mished! my little smilies are not working and my pictures either. What really is with spammers anyhow. For once I'm glad I slept in, I'm usually one of late night early morning on the board people, and I'd have received the full brunt of that mess. Maybe today would be a real good day for all of us to do some computor virus scanning and general cleanup of our systems. I know mines good and clean I virsus scann constantly but I sure want to make sure I don't accidently download something from this board. If it keeps up I think I just might retire from the forum completely. Will have to think about that and see what solutions our mods and Rick come up with. ciao OMA PS I miss my siggy Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to post Share on other sites

oma 28 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 you would get along I'm sure. I haven't left yet I'm just thinking about it due to the spam amounts lately. I'm waiting to see what comes about as a solution. Its discouraging every day I log on and report spam. I'm usually here when everyone is sleeping so see some stupid items. but I sure am glad I didn't have to look at any vulgar images that must have been revolting. and I feel for the mods and Rick. It is not a very mature thing spammers are doing, and truly I just fail to see why people spam. ciao OMA Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to post Share on other sites

Vectawr 0 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Yo guys I dont know if yall noticed but the forum was just down for about 30minutes and now all preview images are "temp. disabled" on the forum. Quote dA - Pdn Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
Simon Brown 43 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 It is not a very mature thing spammers are doing, and truly I just fail to see why people spam. I'm guessing they're first directing traffic to their site and then using that traffic to sell the domain. ------------ I love Forumer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

worldnewser 0 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 ooh inline thumbnails are allowed again Hmmm, I'm gone for a few days in D.C and the first thing I see when I get back is the repercussions from a spam attack. Was the attack as bad as the last one two years ago (I remember witnessing the repercussions of that one too)? Or was it just a slow one?

Rick Brewster 1,695 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 It's not necessarily over. We don't have a better spam prevention system in place, just a stop gap. Which evil do you prefer: no image linking, or no new users? For now, I'm going with the latter since it'll give us some time to catch our breath while letting everyone else continue to use the board "normally".
