    No, in hollywood you learn quickly that tits=>talent, though the specific inferences of 'talent' is debatable,
    This goes for the guys too.
    You ever seen some of the male models on those fitness ads on TV3 late at night? Big saggy nipples on most of them. Hardly trying their damndest to sell the product......

    He was fun in an annoying "God I have found a new level of stoopid!!" kinda way but the funniest thing was knowing he would be kicked eventually. It's good he's gone.

    when you is the king of spam. take a bow. i mean i have been regestered and postin a few months before ya and yet your post count is (whips out abacus) nearly 5times mine.

    anyhew ya shouldn't just look at post count per day, look at what they post. in fairness to oldyellar they arn't all spamy crap.

    bomb idol too has a high post count but its 'mostly' relative, and some pro wrestling ;)

    anyhew, put away the old battons ppl and relax ffs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,987 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    He shot his posting load in one day and got upto 31 posts per day.

    no control like yourself then *cough* 50 posts a day starting off *cough*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,478 ✭✭✭GoneShootin


    Gidgeon, can u imagine the SPAM that would have been inflicted on us had the 9 odd posts per day had continued ?

    fair nuff SMAK has a large post count, but his count would have been miniscule compared to TRIPLESPAM [or watever] if left to continue along his spammy way.

    as for OLDYELLAR, ive yet to see any muppetism from her posts, which was where TRIPLESPAM failed....

    oh and i use the keyboard, not a baton :)


    i stand corrected on OLD YELLARS gender :) ...... a/s/l ? ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,230 ✭✭✭OLDYELLAR


    gone shootin , i am a girl ! i like that thing about using a keyboard as a weapon .interesting .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,228 ✭✭✭Acidflash


    As gone shootin pointed out OLDYELLAR isn't spamming or abusing ppl, triple3threat deserved to get banned

    Something I'm interested in coding for the programming project is a post-limiter, that will stop people posting until their average PPD drops back down below 4 (well, maybe we could make it 5). That would seriously put a dent into a lot of the pure spam posted :)

    Couple of nice optional features:

    - make it user-configurable auto-ignore those posters.

    - no limit for the mod of a board, but only on their particular board jurisdiction, so they can spam themselves but noone else :)

    - take into account someones join date - if it's below a certain level (e.g. 2 months or so, like this girl) then they may not be as bad as someone who has maintained a 4PPD+ avg for 2 years. We could just make them click through an extra spam-annoyance page.

    Some other features would be nice.

    Spammers beware! :)

    Trojan, I'm right behind you.

    i think we'll do something like a sliding scale (2ppd in your first month, then 3 in your second, then 4ppd from there)

    It will let you post 8,10,12 posts in a day but only if your post count isnt close to 4ppd on average anyway.

    Also, something like sponsors getting an extra ppd or something might be a nice little incentive to support the site.
    We can discuss it further but these are the sorts of programming things that cloud, regi and I just wouldnt get round to, which will add to the site for everyone.

    Hmm, agreed on the sliding scale idea, but I think it should be the other way round :) New users will want to post more at the start more than likely, and over time your PPD should really be dropping down to a reasonable level.

    Yeah, it might make it easier for someone to spam at the start, but we could have a spam-lock on each user account that allows the PPD limit to be dropped down to very quiet levels so muppetry can be fairly painlessly dealt with quite rapidly.
