Hi Bams! I'm glad you found your way here from Net Cooking Talk. I think you'll like it here.
Enjoy and post often. :thumb: :D
 
Well, we sure seem to be seeing our fair share of foodie's.

Welcome Jeff. You'll find we're a bunch of pot stirrers here.
 
Cheers Jeff I am just across the Lake from you also on the North Shore in the land of the Sleeping Giant.
Glad to see you here I may be picking your brain for BBQ info.. I love BBQ but not into it on a scale such as youself.
Enjoy yourself lots of good folks here.

The way I see it, it's one of two things:

1. He must be from Hawaii and need a fix. He's half a bubble off anyway, so this should be considered a normal way of saying he's hungry and wants SPAM.

2. He's still cruising old posts and must think he's doing a community service of alerting us and the mods of posts he considers to be SPAM. On the planet he comes from, introductions are SPAM.

There is also the outside chance that he is just a whack job displaying his normal behavior. If that's the case, he fits right in with so many others here. Thank God I'm normal.
 
Hmmm...there was a post somewhere by that Homeland Security guy...

it was one of four he made...all the posts were the same and they had a

commercial ad in his signature. It looked like spam to me. What happened to

his original post?
 
It sure wasn't Jeff claiming to be from Homeland Security he is into BBQ and that I can attest too. I'm also a regular at NetCookingTalk.com one of Doc's other forums.
 
No, there was a post by someone called Homeland Security. He made four

posts in total. All the posts were exactly the same...cut and pasted...and

they all had a commercial web link in the signature...the way the viagra

spammers do..so my post was in response to him. Looks like someone deleted his post.

In case You didn,t know TF . If You suspect Spam or have a problem with a post . Its Much easier for the Mods to deal with it by simply reporting the post by clicking on the ( Report post button ) red triangle in the upper right hand of the post . That way If it is spam or offensive they can pluck it out of the middle of the thread without messing up the OP,s thread .

No I,m not a moderator here just a new member . But I deal with it daily elsewhere & very familiar with the Vbulletin boards . So I would expect My post here to be removed as well . :biggrin:

I recon it problly wont be here TF . I was just saying how it works other places . Once in awhile You get someone that brings up an old thread to the top to put in a spam link , Most case they could contain something bad ( Virus or spyware ) . Mods ussually remove it before its even seen by very many if its reported .

But if they do remove the one offending post While someones Replying instead of reporting . Then it does exactlly what happened here . Which brought up an older post & made it confusing as why you posted Spam , When Maybe what you saw has allready been removed .

Plucking the thread after thats not really censoring but just cleaning out unusefull comments that take away from the OP, thread , but sometimes it is considered censoring on other forums . Obviouslly not the way it works here . Like I said Just explainin what I know & have nothing to do with how things are handled here . It is a very thankless job though trust me . My Kudo,s to the ones here . :biggrin:
