offensive PM's

[redimp]

Thankyou for the answer Sheriff.

Maybe a pm should be sent to everyone then explaining the person in question has been banned and an apology,because like i said before this thread will be gone when some log on,just a thought.

i agree. shelly makes a valid point and if possible, a pm should go out to all members with an explanation. wouldnt want folk thinking this is what blondes about

[Colchester Kev]

A brilliant suggestion ladies .... Consider it done shortly.

The problem i had this morning with the Pm's ,was i opened one of them while both my girls were in the room (luckily they did not see anything)I would have been gutted if my youngest had seen that picture she is only 9!!!

Could they not have been removed by the mods?

Also we have alot of members,that only pop on and off the site every few months,what will they think when in a months time this thread has drifted to say page 3 or 4,they open up there pm and see that with no explanation as to why the pm was there.

I have just checked Pete's account and the lucky boy got 4 Pm's and he has only made one or two posts,so i am guessing they went out to all members.

can these Pm's be removed before someone sees the picture that really shouldn't?

Such is the way of the internet Redimp. This is the first real hit blonde has had since its birth, and thats remarkable. This sort of thing is common. Unfortunately there is not much that can be done about it.... but there could and should be, IMO. Not hard to write a script that Ironside could run to do exactly what you want.

On a side note, my mums PC was hit by a porn spam trojan thing that would pop up thousands of porn windows and the "only way" to remove it was to pay for their spyware removal tool (the site installs the trojan and the spam then asks you to pay to remove, basically....)

[I, Zimbra]

I didn't get any spammy PMs at all....

...I feel so left out.

...dont worry something will turn up.........

Incidentally I did notice that the PMs that appeared in my Inbox weren't shown as being sent to me but to other members (OOPS wrong choice of words!).

I didn't note the names before I deleted them (if it matters) but this might indicate some kind of automated message.

I think it would be very sensible to send a PM to everyone who might have been affected as suggested before.

whoever it was can we have tits next time please


my theory is it was one of flushys mates and was meant for him only but they clicked send to all by accident 

[Karabiner]

I feel sure that Ironside will check out all the links thoroughly before arriving at a suitable solution 

[Dingdell]

Well - just logged on from Dublin - and it woke us up after a long night of bad beats!! Playing at the Fitzwilliam club and it was the talk of our table so we had to see if it was true.

[Ironside]

i didnt check out the link even with 100% secure PC i would be reluctant to click on any link sent in a spam message

they are spamming for a reason 1 is to advertise a site that will charge users for using it

the other is to spread viruses

if anyone clicked on a link i would advise doing a full virus scan after making sure there software is uptodate

[brad.strider]

i take it the pms were sent from spammers then? you didnt answer mad or charmaine directly about it.

[tikay]

so is it a blonde?

Hi Mad,

Strictly speaking, yes, it was a blonde. The individual registered with blonde specifically for the purpose of this spamming exercise, which took place within minutes of registering.

It occurred in the early hours of the morning, & it took us an hour or two to deal with, (he Posted on every Board in blonde before we realized he's PM'd so many of us) but we then banned the Member permanently.

I have had, at a guess, nearly 100 PM's of the "REPORT TO ADMIN" type from Members, & I have sent a personal & individual apology to each & every one.

[tikay]

well other people have been asking and ive not seen you ask them 'does it matter'.

I have replied to this issue now Mad, see my previous Post.

I was Offline from midday yesterday until an hour ago, so I'm sorry I could not deal with the issues raised in this thread sooner.

[tikay]

Would be nice to know , just coz  i'm very nosey 

Hi Charmaine,

Please see my earlier reply to Mad.
