stopped getting spam...

I used to get between 2 and 10 spam emails a day in hotmail
and now I get ZERO... not a one... for the past 10 days or
so.

I've only been catching glimpses of news titles about "war
on spam" etc. so either there's some new law passed or
something, or it has to do with me removing my hotmail
address from my profile here. If that's the case there must
be a million of those email address collecting bots roaming
about here, so try removing it yourself if you have the
same problem.

Well, yes, that is a good point. I miss getting spam because
it made me feel like I had people who liked me... I'm just
saying for the average joe who has regular email sending
friends, removing your email from your profile might stop
spam...

I don't believe it. I've never had 1 piece of spam sent to
the email address that's in my account.

Everyone.. don't do it. It's a trick! Doubleyouemdoubleyou
just wants you to remove youremail addresses from your
profiles so he can use that space to store porplesnarf
energy pods. If he can get 412 more hatched then the
synchropoo-portal opens up and we are all screwed! There'll
be little w M w's running around underfoot... Getting into
unspeakable monkeyshines!

Unfortunately, I predict qrter to be the next moderator. He
just has that... certain moderator quality... that
boringness and unhealthy dedication to this site... plus
phrobiazero has been biased in only promoting gay people so
far so qrter can't lose.

I'm going to give you a Temp ban Mr. Imposter.. until us
here mods can get this mess figgered out.

I would have fallen for your little stunt but I know w M w
doesn't use italics... ha hAHAH!

Poor w M w, not being able to log-in... I hope you are
ashamed of yourself, whoever you are.

Now that you mention it, I can see what you mean.
My good friends John David and Beatrice Gale have stopped
emailing me about how to "R__£edu>Ce..YDeB)T -=))))))

I miss my friends, but at least the war on spam is working.

Well I suppose I still have a few posts left as you inept
moderators hold several meetings, thus necessarily combining
your small intellects into a mass almost as sophisticated as
a normal brain, about how to ban people.

Pomme de terre: okay, I think I know how to do it now. We
each just take turns urinating into our cd players, that
should ban him right?

Ceri: That sounds close, but there's still something not
quite right....

actually, so basicly no matter what I really get NO SPAM!

as far as ive been able to figure, bots are almost useless
at gathering infomation from dynamic datbase driven sites,
as the pages simply dont exist, until they are called by a
user.

not 100% sure, but i have been developing asp/mysql sites
for a while, and have always had trouble getting bots to
index my sites.
