It would attract an undesirable element, and there's enough advertizing on the internet already. 10-4. I thought that'd be the case but just wanted to make sure.

Just Jim Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I have to ask. Every time I turn around, it seems we have another new member named: <Insert city here> escort girl... call girl... whatever... Or something to that effect. Now, yes, I know what it is, and that it's probably automated, and you Moderators will delete it ASAP... That's not my question... My question is this... Just how many of these stupid things does the forum get a day??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatastrophicFailure Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I think the more pressing question here, is... why was @Just Jim looking up those names in the first place? ಠ_ಠ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't noticed. Every time I've looked down there it seems legit. Maybe it in coincides with you being online. Maybe your computer is infected with member-creating-spamware! Or maybe it's YOU DOING IT ALL ALONG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another question, used to be when I got a pm notice it took me to the last unread pm... now it takes me to the first page. Which is a little aggravating when I have some pm conversation's that are dozens of pages long. What changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geonovast Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I'm not seeing anywhere I could change it, but when I click on a private message, it defaults to the first page. This seems odd, I would think it would default to the last page so I can see the reply without having to manually go to the last page. Is that something that can be changed, or am I doing something wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jas0n Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Has anyone else noticed that sometimes new threads are duplicated? I've had it happen to me a few times and I've also seen it happen to other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chel Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hi all, I went on to the forums about half an hour ago, and was met by a '502 Bad Gateway' error thing, with an n/ginx thing or something. What is it, and why did this happen? Was it only me who got this, or was the whole website down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I've seen that a few times over the last week or so. I've heard that the site is undergoing tweaks, so it's probably just some service being restarted when it goes out momentarily like that.
