Let's get every member on the bucket to send an email to all these kitchen twats, with links to countless obscene sites and spam the crap out of them for a change.........

On a side note why is it always kitchens........f I want a sodding kitchen I'll get one from my work.....

[heuhen]

If I want a kitchen, I just make an program to one of our CNC machines here at work, and make it my self... Ekornes style.



Shippy2013 where do you work. I am working at Ekornes as industrial carpenter, with specialty in CNC-machines. But have expertise in all operation at work.

here something from an apprentice project I am doing: https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/ ... 4712_n.jpg

yra, there's spam around. Its ever constant proplem for forums that allow registration without someone prechecking each new member around.

Heuhen, I work for AGA, we make Mainly Cooking equipment but we own several other companies that not only produce cooking and cookery equipment but high end kitchens and alike.

Okay, this spam is getting absurd, and there are multiple ways of doing this, and I going to post a logical one, but it does mean a bit more work for admins:

Another design forum I go to has instituted a rule were new members are in a "trial" group, they are in that for the length of their first 10 posts, and the post can't show up without moderator approval.

Normal members can give that approval, the admin/moderators can have a chosen few members that they trust to act as an human firewall... thus you can have more people letting through real people, thus if admin or moderator take a longer "holiday" there will always be someone letting new member trough, it also will slow down the waiting time for an new member (not like secretprojects, where you have to wait two months before the admin over there realizes this is an new member after you have almost spammed there mail account about how slow they are!!)

There is alot easier ways to prevent the spammers to join the forum. In fact its far easier to just delete the spammers than go trough every newbies posts and approve them.

I've changed the questions which are asked from each new members to be bit more spesific for the forum, e.g some general questions about warships. They are very easy ones for us who come here to draw ships but might not be for those who come here to sell kitchen designs;)

Not a really a rant, but I was wondering why the Royal Falcon Fleet 135 yacht I drew a few years ago no longer shows up in the archive under Real Designs, Sweden.
