ParticipantI want to publish the world's first common people history book! I name it
meaning the traces we live. It is a collection of 1000 works; it means that I want to sell the 1000 places. I charge 1000 U.S. Dollars for one; in other words, spend 1000 USD, you can write your name in the world's first common people history book. I will find (or invite) one talented designer to design the cover and the whole style of and professionals with artistic temperament to set up type and the layout. Also I will use the best ink and papers to print it in one of the world's best printing plants. It will be a product of global wisdom. The will be printed for only 10 sets totally. Each set has two volumes with top and bottom containing the 1000 articles in. They will be numbered 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, and 10 separately and will be charged with different missions.its official site is www.***********.com and i have sold $1000.

KeymasterHmmmm….not exactly a spammer, but selling 1000 spots at $1000 each just sounds so….”spammeresque”.

ParticipantSpammer in my book. I'd boot him if he doesn't post again in a couple of days. 😉

Participantyou know I thought the same thing but decided not to encourage him by posting. I see myexcellent example went unheaded. 🙄

KeymasterWell, he's not a robot since he was able to write in “Qin Dinesty [sic]” as his historical period of choice. However, I did a search for his name and I see that he kind of pasted the same message around on other forums and stuff. Maybe it's just that I'm so used to dealing with robot spammers that when human spammers come around I breath a sigh of relief. 🙂

ParticipantBut still, it's probably a given that will be his only post, unless he has something else he wants to sell.

ParticipantI only give a person a chance if they don't have a link to some music download site or porn site. If the site is quasi normal, then I'll be lenient. If they post an ICQ account number, then they are immediately expunged. I have a couple newcomers at NJO who don't have a website or ICQ number, but they didn't post anything. I haven't deleted them yet because I just don't know if they joined the site arbitrarily just to read with a future possibility of posting, or they are spammers who just want access to email info. They might be from other forums NJO members frequent who link back to the site in their siglines and they just followed the links.

KeymasterWell I removed the link from the guy here in his post. Copying and pasting the same text around the internet, linking back to one's site, and doing it all for commercial reasons suggest that it's the equivalent of spam, even if it relates to a degree with this forum in general. I agree about the ICQ field and the nature of links. SMF has some pretty darn good ways to keep robot spammers from posting; once I posted them I don't think I've had a single robot spammer sign up or post - even in areas where guests can post. I don't know if the same can be implemented for phpbb.

ParticipantIt still shocks me that this goes on. I mean don't these people who do this understand that all they do is irritate people and make them mad? Who goes to a history site to find Porn? American history forums has been overrun. I went to a civilwarforum the other day. It was a small one but it had been blasted with porn spammers. it said they had one hundred members and about four posts, I found one post relating to the civil war all the rest was spam. I just don't get these people.
