Rule for new members

[TrophyTracker]

Due to the ever increasing volume of computer generated SPAM accounts, a new member MUST fill out the "About Me" section of their profile before posting for the first time. Falure to do this may result in an automatic ban.

Reminder:
The Quaker Boy Forum Admins and Moderator reserve the right to ban anyone at any time, for any reason, as well as edit and remove posts.

The following may result in a ban being issued: Flaming, inapropriate language, and Trolling(Troll's are lame)

Ignorant Trouble Making If you are thought to be causing trouble by a moderator, you will be removed from the forum. This includes leading another poster into a thread or “board trap” where one member tries to make the other one snap by messaging them or subtly suggesting something that would cause one to argue back. Our staff is fair and if they pass judgment that you are here to cause problems, you will be removed. NO QUESTIONS ASKED.We would like to operate in a civil manner. This is a publicly run website and will be treated like that for the members.



This is to help ensure the best possible forum experience for Legit members. Keep it chill, and always use brah, brah.:)

Whatever your doing bucko, aint working. There is always one spam monkey on here almost everyday. Why does this forum have issues w/ spammers and we do not see this on other forum boards?

[TrophyTracker]

Do you have any suggestions, Tim?

I am only a Moderator, not the Admin. who has control over the settings. Bob Robertson is the person to ask on this matter.

Chad does a great job of clearing them off quickly. Most forums have a bunch of Moderators that can sweep through and clean house. Chad is the only one here.

I contacted Bob, and he said that he is going to get with the programmers and solve the problem. He also apologized for the inconvenience.

Thanks guys for understanding,

As of today there are 92 active members and 82 of them are banned spammers..:rolleyes:

[TrophyTracker]

Now, if only I could find a way to get them to buy some calls:)

TrophyTracker you always do a Great Job!
I have seen a few vulgar spams on here with pictures to boot, I contacted TrophyTracker and a few other people who happened to not be online at that time. I picked up the phone and called Quaker Boy and the problem was gone in under a minute.
I don't recommend calling Quaker Boy every time you see spam but some extreme instances call for extreme measures.
Thanks for the Post TrophyTracker!:D

Here is a great idea..How about firing the smuck in charge of security for this mssg. board and get somebody that knows what they are doing?

[FlHunter23]

it wont be to long and we will have more members than posts. Probably 95% of the members are spammers.

[TrophyTracker]

It is getting very annoying. The problem is that he can only be reached on here by private msg, as opposed to email. And it's prob safe to say he doesnt spend enough time on here to get the pm's.

Hearing from regular members might wake him up

[palmettoswamp]

Something needs to be done...Got a PM in my inbox on here from a spammer!!! This is getting out of control...Who do I need to call to voice my concerns?

[TrophyTracker]

I hear you Tim,

The acts that need to be taken are beyond my Mod status. The settings need to be changed to the firewall and the regestering setup. I looked it up, but don't have access.

Here is the contact, the number is on the site.

We have made some adjustments to the settings, and so far so good with the Spam situation. Thanks to Bob for getting on this and helping out
