TR Hijacked

Closed to new repliesThis discussion is closed. It stays readable, but it takes no new replies.
Anyone else notice questions being answered with the wrong answer. Anyone notice that the questions seem to be from new accounts. I thought that you had to have a legitimate Email address to open an account with TR. I notice that on some sites I can see my IP address maybe its time for TR to implement this as a deterrent. Any suggestions?

There are to be changes in the rules. Timing is everything and just now, timing is bad.

Hang in. It will get better as we go along.

Waiting for the "Punch the Crap out of Poster" button myself. Hoping, anyway...

Seriously, we are just in a bad patch. Things will get sorted.

Edit: I hate this keyboard...

Try to exercise how to ignore the clowns. I use a common sense filter. Kind of like a TV, if you don't like what you hear or see, change the channel and shut your pie hole. It only took TR three minutes to get the odiots in reign, not too shabby. One of my first considerations in veiwing any post is the date joined and you will find flamers, clowns and idiots as newbies and may or may not who they are dealing with. NUFF SAID

on your "I notice that on some sites I can see my IP address..." I haven't seen that (yet) but if that's correct, please tell the TR people. Quick.!.
And as far as I know everyone us does have an e-mail address, on file at TR. -d
edited to add..... I can asure you that TR will recieve many, many sugestions today, (Mon. 29 Jan.) from a lot of users. (personally, I'll let them have a cupa first. ;) )-d

It's been a long time since I signed up as obmaMD, my evil alter ego, but does TR send a PW to a new user's e-mail address for initial log-in? If they don't, then that might be a good practice to put the lid on some of the spamming scum.

Other sites do it. You can usually read your email with your confirmation within seconds of signing up on sites that use this method to confirm the email address. It just makes sense.
