What is going on at GFO with the weird Posts?
« on: September 18, 2019, 05:24:07 AM »
Hey. Is anyone here to check on posts? There are some strange ones with ?? and also ones that have boobs. Is this forum no longer moderated to keep out the weird stuff? If this is the case, I'm sad to say I won't be back.

Don't know what the problem is with the sudden uptake of those kind of posts. I just removed that one and will try to check more often for others. Sorry.

Dear God,
All I ask in 2013 is a big, fat bank account and a slim body. Please do not mix up the two like last year.
Thank u and Amen.

Thank you dearladie for your reply and hard work. I know things change, but I miss chatting with so many that used to have time to visit here. Life goes on though and people get busy.  Hope you all had a nice Halloween.

Yes, I also miss all the good times we used to have on the forum. Seems like since PTR/PTC isn't as popular as it once was the activity has dwindled here on the forum. I do still talk to some of the old timers on Facebook though which is nice.

Yes I miss those times too. Altough I keep up with a few on Facebook I don't post like I would have on here where the only people posting were forum members. So there was really more privacy here.

I've seen those posts full of question marks too.

There is a link here that sometimes shows as "News" at the top. One says,
"REGISTRATIONS DISABLED! Read if you want to join!" ...   So I'm not sure how these posters get in.

But that link leads to the signup page if you are not signed in, and to a message about the topic being off limits if you are signed in.  ???
So it doesn't show how to get any info if a person is looking to join.

I haven't tried it but maybe it just lets people join as in the past with no approval process.  :-.

Scammers always seem to find work arounds for getting into places and posting their crap it seems.

You might check the security. Hackers may have broken in and be able to post those things.
