Reporting PMs
on: November 19, 2008, 11:52:42 AM
I just got a PM from a new member, obviously spam, but he hasn't made any posts and I can't find a way to report him in the PM screen.
Nils, can you help?

It's OK I think. Just don't think he found the introduction thread first. I'll talk to him.

Although I will say, there are lots of things I still don't know about the internet...

If you have been on the internet for any amount of time, you would know what leet was, unless you did nothing but visit pianostreet, read your email, etc. Also, if there is something you don't understand, you can go to https://www.google.com/, type it into the search box, and (Hopefully) get a link to some relevant information.

For simplicity sake, I will just say that 'leet' is 1337, and refers to a type of typing where letters are replaced by numbers. For example, "Hello there" would turn into "H3ll0 th3r3". It was a big fad in internet culture that is somewhat cliche now.

I know you can look it up on google, and that's what I did. But now I know what it means...Thanks for the info. I've just recently (past few months) been using the internet a lot...I know there's a lot more that I don't know about it...

Regardless of the "leet" thing, we are going off topic. There should be a way of reporting it, if not...forward the message to Nils (just quote the full message) and explain it to him.

It'll be investigated and the appropriate action will be taken. ;)

I've had a bunch of messages from 33nn.  I just ignored them and they stopped coming.  Probably the same person who's been sending you them.

Try to not mention actual PMs or who they are from. Thalbergmad created a post last night that mentioned confidential PMs and it was removed by Nils. If this thread becomes like that one, Nils will probably remove this also.

A shame, but Nils is the boss...LOL

Yeah, a common thing. People make accounts and keep them just for the chat, unaware that their I.P. can be traced if they have another account also...LOL
