The weird Hours that you have been up wasting your time on TR.

It’s really quite Therapeutic posting on TR isn’t it?

Hey Sonja, can you see how the stats would read if you removed all

In reply to TR Community scoreboard for September 7, 2012

my replies to Thoiness, and his posts, in the Should You be Able to Sue Developers thread. It tried to have a serious discussion on the subject with him and gave up and stopped reading or responding to his posts when I finally realised the silly bugger was being a major troll and I was letting him get away with it. So I figure his replies and my responses, and his further replies, in that thread aren’t legitimate posts.

Thanks for taking the time to put the stats together. I figure the Spam buster stats should be good this week as I caught a couple of big posters and noticed a couple of others did too.

Not bad, Ernest! Nice work – even for catching those pesky spammers.

Most of those spam hits were from two busy spammers, I got

lucky and found them within a few minutes of them starting.

I am surprised about the votes, as I don’t watch them and didn’t see any going up, I’ll have to look for them.

The Q&A is mostly on question of stuff I’m either not experienced enough in or out of date about now, so I rarely get to answer what’s there – which is a shame.

I don’t believe you’re not experienced for a minute…

You’re usually quite informed about the topics you choose to talk about, besides, if I can get 7 votes for telling a guy to fashion a tin foil hat I’m sure you could do much better for serious answers.

🙂 have a most wonderful weekend everyone!

Odd, I got like 4 spam posts

In reply to TR Community scoreboard for September 7, 2012

for that abcshopping thing.

ah, I think I know what happened, it’s happened to me a few times

In reply to Odd, I got like 4 spam posts

when I see a spammer I open up as many of their posts as I can and then go from one to the next flagging them. At times someone else is doing the same thing but a few seconds ahead of me, thus they get the spam flag credit and I don’t. I know I flag a lot of those abcshopping posts, he had about a dozen up, but I didn’t get the credit for them all as I got beat on a couple.

That explains it.

In reply to ah, I think I know what happened, it’s happened to me a few times

I open them one at a time. I still haven’t figured out how to easily see more than the spammer’s most recent four posts. ‘View All’ has been dead for a while; has it ever worked reliably since the Reformation?

View All has been working for me…

In reply to That explains it.

to see more of the spammers’ posts I typically use Opera and multiple
tabs…sometimes I’ll open a spammer post in a new Opera window
then open the posts in a new tab in that window…this works in both
Windows and when I’m booted into Slax.

I use Firefox and multiple tabs, click on their profile, open view all,

In reply to That explains it.

click on each link, and work my way through them.

Interesting.

I tried ‘View All’ on Friday and all I received was a page with the surrounding frames and a blank center. Today it works. I don’t recall flushing my cache, although FF did update to version 15 within the last couple of days.

Jinkies, Scooby-Doo; it’s a mystery!

View All has been working for me too…

we’re using IE.

Thank you Sonja!

Hope everybody has a great weekend! I’ve got a new granddaughter to
get started spoiling! Plus, we’re expecting some cooler temps!! Instead
of baking at over 100 degrees F, might be in the low 80s! 🙂

yay!

In reply to Thank you Sonja!

congrats wiz! Hope it stays cooler for you as well 🙂

Thanks Purple!

In reply to yay!

Yes, new little one, she weighed in at 7 lb 6 oz, 18 & 3/4 in long…
Aryona Michelle…youngest son and his wife…the parents are
doing well, my son is enamored, my daughter-in-law is trying to
rest…Grandpa Wiz is smiling!! 😉
edit to add:
ps—maybe I’ll try to upload a few pics, probably will have to
crop myself out of them, LOL!

Congratulations, Grampaw!

In reply to Thanks Purple!

Permission to spoil granted. 😀

Congrats!

In reply to Thank you Sonja!

Start spoiling, Grumpaw!!!

Not sure I understand what you mean by that Wiz

In reply to Thank you Sonja!

Are you trying to imply that the New Granddaughter is responsible for the Colder Temps or that the Colder Temps are responsible for the Granddaughter?

I remember [b]Cold Nights[/b] you used to snuggle up to a CRT Monitor and stay warm. :p

Pally do you think that Jaqui could handle the Shock

In reply to Hey, everyone’s aware by now that Jaqui’s in the neighborhood, right?

In finding out that the PTB @ TR have turned so many of the disreputable people into Moderators would be any good for Jaqui?

There are so many other changes around here that he has to come to terms with that the one above may just push him over the edge. 😉

Though on the other hand I’m sure many of the new members here would continue referring to him as a [b]HER.[/b] 😀
