Spam-tastic

So after having a wee look at the latest spammers it was alarming to discover 12 folk joined a day ago as you can see

Out of these 12 folk 8 are spam!!!..just because some don't post a link it's all there on their "about" page !!

It's ridiculous that these all go undetected unless by the RSPB 

It's like a free advertising place for anything and everything 

From Essay writing to Escorts!!

It's a disgrace 

Rant Over :-]

    She said at one point she can’t pm Robbo cause he has his pm off even though she’s tryed cause she gets along with him.

    She might say that but he hasn't remotely supported her vicious behaviour.  That clearly came as a shock to her.  She only likes other forthright people as long at they are not forthright about the way she was behaving.

    Our herring gulls are red listed birds.  Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

  • She is still lurking around liking stuff but just not replying to anyone...

    (Pardon the Scottish Accent)

  • We have all wasted enough of our precious time on her let's hope head office takes care of it now ;-)

    (Pardon the Scottish Accent)

  • One other thing we might need to be aware of though even if she were to be taken care of she has made new profiles before and might not hesitate to do it again
  • Deal with here and now , not the what ifs ;-)

    (Pardon the Scottish Accent)

  • I know. I am. it’s Just something to keep in mind

    quoteing Grahm 

    The process we are undergoing is an upgrade of a specific piece of software. Therefore, to a large extent we are at the mercy of what this software does or does not provide. That said, there is some flexibility and control over what the software does, of course, but not a huge amount.

    In this particular case, the Messages functionality does not include Report abuse capability. This is because "Report abuse" as a concept exists to allow people to report what others have said if it offends them or is legally on dodgy ground. Within the context of private messages therefore this doesn't make sense as no one else can see the message.

    The subject of abuse through private messaging is a valid one though and the software is designed to make this difficult or unlikely. Messages are only allowed from your Friends so this provides the first line of defence, as it were. If you have befriended a person on the Community and they are contacting you via Messages in a way you do not like, you can simply de-friend them and they will not be able to Message you again.

    I hope that explains a little more.

    All the best,

    Graham

    if this is how private messaging is supposed to work it obviously didn’t that’s on the occasion that it’s the latest update wev had

    you can request friendship to private message yes but You can also private message someone without making a request obviously 

     I hadnt recieved any requests to private message the person which in this case was peewit I was simply private messaged out of the blue and the person hoped I’d reply before it all started 

    so there  must be some sort of glitch if that is how it is supposed to work or there must be more to it than we are told obviously. 

  • Problem here Zo is that this was a post from 2011 and doubt very much that Graham Bird is still around! Not sure what to suggest to find an answer apart from phoning RSPB to report what happened!

  • I might consider the possibility of  lookng iinto it at some point and see if I can figure out the answer and things like that  then maybe  I might consider  phoneing the RSPB if all else fails 

    • first cause I hadn’t replyed yet and had been intending to thank you.  in reply to the comments. Thanks. 

       I thought I should let you know aswell in case you didn’t know. im Transgender so I don’t identify as my biological gender instead I identify as male so I go by he/ him pronouns so I go by he him and other male pronouns offline aswell as online.   If people arnt aware or make a mistake and Acidently put the wrong pronouns i let them know so please don’t be hard on yourself if you didn’t know or made a mistake
      peewit knows I go by he/him and I suspect it’s possible she didn’t help and comfused people when she was useing she repeatedly to refer to me when she was acuseing me of being hazy and a fake profile 

      I was wondering if it would be ok to change the female pronouns to male pronouns lady to man or male etc which ever I don’t mind 
      and in the next comment below aswell Young girl to young boy and if not  to male anything along those lines. Iv sent the link to the page here so you don’t have to go through all those pages again if that’s ok with you

        You are such a brave and very bright young lady Zo
        and I really admire your attitude and how you are handling all this nastiness from a certain person on here. It must be very upsetting for you. As a former teacher I have rarely encountered such bullying as you are having to put up with.
        Please carry on with all your lovely threads as I love the joy you find in all the fauna and flora around you.
        With my very best wishes
        Jenny

        Kind regards

      Nobody is picking on you Kathy. We are just stating facts
      . You are being abusive and bullying to a young girl with autism.
      You also seem to be threatening Linda and Ian. I know Claire, Linda and Ian can fight their own battles but the abuse of Zo is beyond the pale.

      Kind regards

      Jenny
