just signed up but already having real problems. I tried 3 times to upload a picture to my account only to have the site refresh the page and delete everything I had just done. It is not me, I am very familiar with forums and uploading files. But the first thing I did was look into a link that led to a video site that was disgusting and shocking, apparently, the monitors are not paying very close attention, too bad, this seemed like an interesting forum but I am not willing to try for a 4th time to upload and have the page refresh and delete everything I just spent ten minutes doing!

Welcome to the forums jhonni - I'm sorry to hear that you've had some problems.

Was it a site avatar that you were trying to upload (from the user control panel), if so, I'll try and replicate the problem myself. Also, which browser are you using?

U mention a link but are not specific!!

What you may find shocking maybe appealing or funny to others here

If it was disgusting then I assure you it would have benn or should have been deleted a while ago.

Not much gets past us here at PCR


Your avatar will prbably not load simply because its too big. try again using only 80x80pixels

I got a link via e-mail to the thread in question, and it was an old post that was definitely spam - it is long gone now though. :)

Why was it still Viewable Ian?

And for a newcomer how did he/she see it without digging for it?

When I say long gone, I mean that I removed it once I got the e-mail, but by the time this thread was made it had already disappeared (so couldn't be linked to). I guess the thread was found when searching for something via Google, I'm not entirely sure.

If ever anyone spots spam, just click the red alert symbol in that post and it will drop me an e-mail to let me know :)

Ahem.

Between 1950 and 1989, the Stasi employed a total of 274,000 persons in an effort to root out the 'class enemy'. In 1989, the Stasi employed 91,015 persons full time, including 2,000 fully employed unofficial collaborators, 13,073 soldiers and 2,232 officers of GDR army, along with 173,081 unofficial informants

Ahem? I think I am being referred to as a "rat" or a "mole" by that quote. I see myself more as a girl with low tolerance for nonsense like that link and its accompanying photos...

Absolutely not. My apologies if you got that impression. Inappropriate posts are... well... inappropriate, and should well be reported.

Nope – I was merely pointing out the numbers. The forum staff does – methinks – a dandy job given the volume of traffic.

The term I would use would be "Troll" but I'm nitpicking ... :)

I am very familiar with forums ...
Hmmm, are you ?

May I say I am surprised you lasted 10min ... :wave:

I see myself as a bloke with low tolerance ... :nod:
