Gang I am deleting all the spam posts as fast as I can and waiting for Dontbe to block the IP address
-
Don,t be so hasty about getting rid of the Spam...well, not this kind anyway....it sure fills a hole...when there,s nowt else about..and .its great deep fried in a crispy batter... ;D
-
All of a sudden they have targeted this forum !!
-
Its probably because they,re jealous...of what we have here....
-
I can not figure out what the purpose is,,, especially the really stupid ones that make no sense !! What do they get out of it ?? A lot of trouble for nothing !!
-
Wullie is back!
-
Indeed he is KC !! Guess we had better behave !!
-
By-the-way Talesof....thanks for the monumental task of monitoring the forum. THANKFUL FOR YOU & Ed!
-
Yes we are !! Thanks so much for all your hard work !!
-
You're welcome! No problem! Fortunately I can delete those posts from my cell phone now. Today I was deleting them while from our little sailboat when we dropped anchor and were having a barbecue! I swear there must have been 50 or more Ugg boots posts!
-
I know what i,d be doing to these Ugg boot wearers...take them on a tour of an Ugg boot factory..in China...then afterwards ask them...."do you still think Ugg boots are cool"......sometimes I wish i could boycott everything that was made in China....but...then i,d probably have to go about in the scud....because almost everything i wear comes from either China or the far east....
-
Now even these are getting hijacked !!
-
I'm leaving this one up for Dontbe so that he can see which IP address to block.
-
That was a crazy couple of days! sorry about that folks. Pretty bad when Tales has to be deleting posts from a boat!!!
(BTW, if anyone is interested.. If you want to see what what the low bandwidth version of the site looks like on a regular cell phone, add a ";wap2" to the URL.. ie: http://www.antique-shop.com/forums/index.php?board=2.0;wap2 )
sorta neat huh?
But I digress.. sorry for the spam.. the best ting you all can do is hit the "report post" button.. that lets me and tales know that there is a problem... And tales can delete the post while I go in and ban thier ip and email address.
And thanks to Tales for doing that, BTW.. its not like she is getting paid or anything, she just earns our gratitude for keeping a nice forum! :)

Thanks for all the great work you folks do here , dontbe & talesofthesevenseas !
It's like magic !

I reported ugg boots and I think they tried to hack me. Their mail wound up in my regular emails. I didn't open it and deleted it. Hotmail notified me that someone was trying to break into my account. I saw their email their, but couldn't get in till I verified my account and changed my password. Be careful with some of these spammers and opening links. You never know!
-
It is looking like Ed has got the Ugg spammers successfully blocked, and thanks for the heads up about the email hacking GA! This sure was an aggressive "infestation" we had this time!
-
Yes it was !! Like cockroaches,, they come out of the woodwork and are about as welcome !!
-
Yeah, aggressive infestation is right! :o
-
I moderated a different site and the Russian spam got so bad I could not delete it as fast as it showed up. You guys are lucky. It can get really bad. I was getting one per minute. I have since left the site.
-
.Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?.. ;D ;D ;D ;D...think positive.....
-
I never think negative. What follows "I am" will come looking for you.
