2 Goatse spammers.

Same person.

Spitzer spammer?

@ Face Plate
I'm pretty sure it was only one guy. There was two accounts, but they were both doing the same thing. Plus, the first account logged off right after the second one logged on. So obviously it was one guy.

I have another theory. Maybe this "projenity" guy is somehow linked to the Goatse attacks or the attacks on Mantha.

Projenity claimed to be jcamelo. Nothing else linked to him.

It wasn't me though.

He posted I think one spam thread in the Flash section. It was deleted pretty quick.


Oh I see. So from what I'm getting it was some guy who tried to make Spitzer look bad by making another account with his old name and trying to spam the Flash section?

This might be linked to the previous 2 day Goatse attack/Mantha attack. Apparently it's someone who is really bad at spamming, and hates Spitzer/Mantha. And he must've been using mulitple computers because each pair of accounts had its own IP address.

@Dudeman
I'm just saying because of that reason. Maybe it's someone just trying to cause mass trouble around the forums in various ways. Or maybe projenity was just a noob trying to get people to like him by posing as a respecting member which he didn't realize wasn't so respected anymore.

The spitzer/mantha thing wasn't related. I guess I have a better idea of what happened then I thought ^.^

Sorry, I'm just thinking things too deeply. I'm assuming they're related (as well as the Goatse) because they happened in such a short time frame. I see the Goatse being more related to Mantha because they were pretty much back to back in terms of time. Right after the Goatse, the Mantha attacks commenced.

Let's get back to suggestions, folks.

Quote from Inanimate
Heres a suggestion: A search a thread thing. Sometimes, I just want to find a post in one particular thread, and I have to search the whole forum.


That's a DAMN good suggestion. I do that all the time. Such a feature is imperative.

He means finding a certain post, in a certain thread. And I second that motion.

Can't you already do that? Like, just use the search function and remember what the post was.

As smart as you are Dragon007, don't you think that Inanimate meant searching for a post without knowing which thread it was in?

Lol. Fried chicken.

Oh, and there's an Advanced Search page too, which can search by username, keywords, etc.

I don't see how the four links you provided for "Give NTF bat cave access" are relevant at all.

I also don't really agree with it, it doesn't seem necessary. Any information that we would need that we can ONLY get from the bat cave would be given to us by Zulu or something.

also,



I haven't changed at all, but since you seem to think you know me better than I do, please explain what I'm doing.

Quote from DeathwishWe really need our own section to discuss this stuff.
Well... I suppose ZuLu could consider letting us into the Bat Cave without giving us mod powers. But that'd be up to him.[/quote


Quote from ShadowsofYesterday][QUOTE=Deathwish
Yeah, our own section wouldn't take too much trouble to make though either.

Eh... I think it'd be more trouble to create another section when we could just work directly with the mods.

Seriously, Exilement, you can't see how those posts are relevant to the suggestion of allowing NTF members Cave access? And by God, you'd need to be a damn idiot to reject the idea, no disrespect. You say it's unnecessary because you don't want to look like you just want to be a mod, so that the admins are impressed by your leadership, patience, and the fact that you don't mind not being a mod "despite" all your efforts to improve the site, and make you a mod. Tell me I'm wrong. Tell me I'm just "making blind assumptions".

The fact of the matter is, ZuLu and Paperclip are great admins, and there's no denying it. But they have lives, just like any of us. They can't be on at every single hour of the day and night. And when they're not on, what can the NTF really do, anyway? Post a thread in the NTF section and WAIT for an admin to come on? When a spam attack's going on, you'd best believe that's not going to work out very well. It's the same problem we used to have with the mod system, right after the reset, when mods didn't have the power to ban and had to make ban requests in the Cave, and wait for ZuLu to come on to answer them. Which, back then, could sometimes be a few days!

So the suggestion was made (by me, yes, but who gives a rat's ****? It's a valid suggestion, and a damn good one) to give NTF members Cave access, so we could have direct contact with not only the admins, but all of the mods as well. Plus, that way, we'd have access to their knowledge base. Did you know that the Cave has a section which creates a new thread every time a member makes a second account? It'd certainly help make our job easier if we were actually working TOGETHER with the mods, and not as some separate entity altogether.

Now yes, I know Slowpoke is slow, for you damn /b/ addicted dumbasses out there who wish to tell me I just responded to a ****ing old post. Go get a life and learn that there are better things to do than whore out overused, not-funny-anymore memes.

Now then...

As for the Search thing, we DO already have it. It's called "Advanced Search". http://stickpageportal.com/forums/search.php

That option is for finding a thread. I want to find a POST in a thread. We have no option for that.


Oh, never saw the search thread function. My bad. I am such a retard.
