Spam is getting a bit to much..

Ziroc · 05-05-2002, 12:52 AM

Now you know I don't mind some of it, but it's getting a bit much.

I just wanted to ask you all to kinda be less spamistic. (a new word!)

And these quote pyramids are getting nuts. Until I can figure out a way to fix these, keep quotes to 3 or less quotes OF quotes (huh??) hehe.. I am looking for a fix now for it..

Sucks to have to scroll to the right to read!

Fair enough... and those big quote chains do get very weird in looking dont you think??

dizzy · 05-05-2002, 12:58 AM

No problem. Could you please delete that stupid rave thread?

dizzy · 05-05-2002, 12:59 AM

thank you very very much

YES!!!!!! Thanks, Z! You know I'm a chatter/spammer at heart but when even *I* roll my eyes at things it's getting crazy! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yah, the quote function is a new one that a lot of updated boards do. I don't mind one or two quotes in a post but more is ridiculous!

Since when have you ever rolled your eyes Cloudy [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] j/k

And is it possible for there to be a program or something to stop the qoute chains??

Why not put it in the rules that we should only quote the posts which our posts are directed at ?? Just an idea. [img]smile.gif[/img]

hmm there must be a setting to disable multiple quotes, i know the've done it on another of my forums, except that was with vBulletin.

Anyway best of luck Ziroc the pyramids are being annoying.
