Guest Nanks Report post Posted June 22, 2003 There don't seem to be any mods online right now and I guess when one comes on they'll notice, but just in case you don't, there's some freak on the loose rampantly starting spam threads. Just thought I'd throw this out there, couldn't hurt. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Since all of the mods seemingly are on the East Coast, it's hard to prevent this stuff from occuring (although it is....hmm, 10:10 a.m. EST?). Maybe a bit drastic, but this may call for a West Coast moderator to be appointed, to add to the AWOL Brian. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Nanks Report post Posted June 22, 2003 That's a good point Cowboy, but I do kinda hope it's Dames. Not coz I'm wishing a big clean up on him, I just want to see him go nuts on this tool. Does he really think this will get anyone worthwhile to go to his boards??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Downhome Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Don't just ban this guy, fuck that. If the mods and admins here have any nut, they'll take the IP of this moron, and use it to contact his ISP in order to REALLY have this moron suffer. If you guys don't want to do it, give me his IP and I'll do it. If you provide it to me, I can contact his IP and have his ISP really deal with him, I've done it before. Just don't delete all of his threads, move them to a hidden forum so you can show them to his ISP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest caboose Report post Posted June 22, 2003 I think there should be a new MOD from outside the East Coast to stop Spamming like this at different times. I'm not volunteering because I'm too lazy to do the job effectively, but someone else not from the east coast, maybe even outside of America should really be modded, so there is an almost constant watch on the board.

Guest Downhome Report post Posted June 22, 2003 I almost love when moron fuck with me on here, I've had so many peoples sites/forums deleted, suspended, etc... and so many net connections cut that it isn't even funny. I used to love being an Admin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bravesfan Report post Posted June 22, 2003 I'll be a ringer for you guys. I live in the west and I'm on at obscene hours. Just throwin that out there for ya. Same here.

Guest Space_Cowboy Report post Posted June 22, 2003 What you really want is someone who lives in like China or something, so when it's late hours for everyone else it's the middle of the day over there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted June 22, 2003 (edited) EDIT: Nevermind. I don't want anyone to misinterpret my actions as some plea for a moderator's spot. I simply asked for someone on the West Coast to be appointed...ANYONE. Hell, it's in my first response on this page.

Guest caboose Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Then how do you explain the fact that the WWE folder has been completely spammed? Other folders have been spammed and there isn't anyone on the board now to clean it up or ban BERG. We need another MOD just on at a different time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Then how do you explain the fact that the WWE folder has been completely spammed? Other folders have been spammed and there isn't anyone on the board now to clean it up or ban BERG. We need another MOD just on at a different time. To reiterate: DVDVR's boards was ferociously spammed early this morning, leaving the moderators with the unenviable task of waking up to it today, and assessing the situation. As much as the amount of moderators probably DON'T need to be increased, there's no current prevention to someone on the West Coast attacking this board at late hours - ALL OF THE MODERATORS ARE SLEEPING.

Guest Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Precisely. I would personally prefer that someone be online at say 5am pacific time instead of a troller getting an hour to run free hammering on the forums. Better to kill 3 posts/threads than have to clear out 70+ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MrRant Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Eh... I'm on the West Side of the Hizzy.... but it would be Dames call. I don't think we need more mods but the fact that they are all on the East Side does lend itself to some issues here and there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Other folders have been spammed and there isn't anyone on the board now to clean it up or ban BERG. We need another MOD just on at a different time. It happened when no mods were on, that's why. Adding more mods isn't needed, it's just something that everyone calls for every time there's a small troll problem. OMG WE NEED MODZZZ!!! No, just ignore it. Go somewhere else for a few hours instead of suggesting something that's not really needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
