Poor guy should be doing many other things besides baby sitting!

Yep, just some guys job to sign up for forums and post this stuff all day.  It pays the bills but I don't know how you can be proud of yourself at the end of the day.

ugh.... poor girls that get dragged into that industry (especially eastern Europe). It's one thing when they have ample opportunities and choose it, but another when people take advantage of their current situation and lack of opportunities.

Just....how....why....who.... WTF?  IP ban?  This pisses me off. :furious  I hope HiTech butchers this guy.  Track him down and feed him to some lions.  No wait, that's cruel and inhuman torture.....to the lions.  Dang it...  Ooo, ooo!  We found our first contestant for the game show in Running Man!  I can't remember if that WAS the name of the game show in that movie.  It's been so long since I last saw it.

Yeah, pretty tasteless.  

I hope skuzzy gets to them before someone's kid does.  Clowns like that are going to have picture posting privileges removed for all.  Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to limit pic posting to those who have been on for a month or so.....to cut down this type of clown.

EDIT  He was on this board in December.... so, just <sigh>.

If this doesn't get HTC to start linking ingame ID to BB ID nothing will. Limit non subbed to specific forums.

first I thought it was some looser upset abot being Modded and playing games.
A google search of their Email seems to suggest a spambot.
I thought these things only hot chat rooms. first time I've ever seen one in a forum.

I agree on in game ID to post. Maybe make most of the forums members only with one or two boards open for public access for potential new players who do not yet have an account.

The only problem is there are quite a few users who no longer play that also frequent the boards. Maybe grandfather them in somehow

Spammers are a fact of life.  No sense in giving them the satisfaction of any more attention than it takes to rid of them from the board.

It is not an everyday occurrence.  How many spammers have been on this board since we switch the forum software?

If that were the case those that temporarily close accounts for part of the year when they don't have time or funds for AH are outta luck.

I was going to say, how many people that post anything on this BBS actually play AH or at one point have played?
