Then why try to make this one (which he must have joined because it was different) into a clone of the first ?
This site was formed due to the direction in which CWDF was being taken, some of us could see the probable results.
This site works because it is free ..... and to survive it needs to stay as such
Yeah but no but yeah .... 7 of the threads in 'Recently Updated' are shite spam. It's getting in the way. you don't get it do you .......... censorship is never justified ...... once you start there is no stopping it's spread.
Lets stop wotsisname cos it's shite spam ...... oh and let's ban Foxy cos he spouts rubbish ..... oh and let's ban Jim Riley 'cos he tells lousy jokes ...... oh and Mr Stabby 'cos he rides a moped, ohg and dogless 'cos he beats his wife and steals boats, oh and Gazza 'cos he has a yoghurt pot oh and not forgetting.............................
eta just been on the 12v fridge thread ..... I think I will vote for Mr Stabby ..... that joke was dire !!!

Phew! I escaped the ban hammer Cool. But yes it would be handy to have someone who could just take off obvious rubbish and not interfere with genuine posters input. When I saw these recent posts I was like "oh to be able to just rub them out like rubbish emails on my phone with a little swipe of the finger to the right". For the greater good of the forum I mean. Not just for me.

It is always easy to start down the road of "for the good of the forum" .....

It doesn't seem to be as all-encompassing as last time but this sort of continuous posting of irrelevant threads does have a negative effect.
I'm not quite sure why it is sporadic. I would have thought you could just programme the machine to completely annihilate the place unless there is some sort of flood control filter.
There probably is flood control enabled.
Of course being an undying cynic I wonder if someone who is taking money for providing an online platform might wish to look at getting more money by offering anti-spam options...

I only want someone to tell me if Mr Trollies threads r worth looking at.. Otherwise I'll just carry on as per my norm and ignore them... I don't want us moderated..we do a good job when someone goes too far and sometimes that person takes heed....

twbm is correct with the deleting of obvious 'spam' from non-members. That's not 'moderation' but simply cleaning up the site.
As I have said before, I think the members list needs a good clean out too, of 'members' who are clearly not, or members who joined but never posted and have never been seen again.
Like an unruly rose bush - needs pruning.

Thst would be Patty. Her post last before yours. you really are clueless This time, yes. I thought this was another thread. No matter, the troll is not looking nor caring whether anyone replies to their post, it's just scatter-gun splurging not confined to TB but to other sites. The solution lies in administration. Unless it really is a clever Russian/Chinese hacker, but they are more interested in going after banks and government departments. I have already said TB needs an awake controller. And, possibly, a more stable/reliable hosting platform.

I think JohnV is right ... who decides what is annoying robotic nonsense and what is foxy ? Once the decision is taken to trim a bit here or there, where does it end ? Rog PS I do not beat my wife or steal boats ... just saying

Many people think that Christmas is about drinking, over-eating and exchanging tacky gifts. They will never be convinced by any scientific advice. I love my family too much to put any of them at risk, or put them through the anxiety and worry of getting sick myself. This Christmas, love and care will be the best present we can exchange.
