hamradio Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Is it hard to filter posts containing 슈퍼카지노 before it appears on the board.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Movie Collector OH Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Is it hard to filter posts containing 슈퍼카지노 before it appears on the board.? That brings to mind what you can do with Character Map, but I use that very sparingly. Very sparingly indeed. Since you still use Window XP, I think XP even had one.

Tikisoo Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Apparently the spammers are running out of ideas. When they run out of "first names" to call their threads Anti spam software targets a poster's name....more than 3 posts in 5 min (or whatever time filter you set it for) would automatically be rejected as spam. Not only am I dumbfounded TCM Message Board Moderators are not provided with simple anti-spam software, but even more dumbfounded anyone would load this board with unintelligible spam! No one can read it. No one wants to. What is the purpose? (smart spammers start provocative threads to get people to open them, then try to sell you something) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tikisoo Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Whenever someone posts a link to some article instead of actually typing a comment, it's exactly like spam. Wholly impersonal. Always less sensational as they thought. I've learned to look at "last post" and recognise these "link-spammers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaytonf Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) At least the spam thread titles are getting colorful. I wonder if they can stick in animated emojis? Or is that still the right term? Oh, they're gone. Edited July 4, 2017 by slaytonf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spence Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 One again in "THE WEE SMALL HOURS OF THE MORNING"-(my runner-up all-time favorite *Francis Albert number by the way) These boards are packed with ASIAN SPAM & TRASH??? You'd think by now they would have enough safeguards to finally block this nonsense? I writ e on dozens of others & nobody has this going on though?

You'd think by now they would have enough safeguards to finally block this nonsense? I writ e on dozens of others & nobody has this going on though? my thoughts too but why make an issue of asian spam with a network that should be showing many more movies than they choose to...like hot spell. but for some reason continue to relentlessly stick with the same fixed unchanging coffer of films. they ignore hot spell. they ignore asian spam. go figure. slackers!

Mr. Gorman Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Maybe not enough suckers err, members, have joined the TCM Pox Lot so The Powers That Be are holding out resources of better filtering equipment until more folks fork out their $89 smackers? I dunno. NipkowDisc: If TCM ever does show HOT SPELL you might go in to shock and require medical attention! Be careful what you wish for! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodness are there no more silents laying around in film vault's, some idiot had to make one up?? (Mel Brooks satire excluded) What a crock! Boy ham, you REALLY didn't like that movie, did ya! Personally, I thought it was a fairly well executed film born of a somewhat clever concept. But yes, I suppose it would have been better done in a comic mode than as it was, straight-faced. And personally again, I did think the second Italian film presented the other night, "I Knew Her Well", was much better. (...did you see that one?...don't wanna spoil it for you, but after that one I thought of another title for it..

So if they end up limiting our own abilities to make threads as we like to, The spammers will have won ! And we can't have that. they clean it up the next day anyways. What's the big deal ???
