Hey bob
Hey bob,

I think in the process of deleting spam and banning spam bots, user NoFussRef accidentally got caught in the crosshairs. Since he does not have your e-mail to contact you, he has asked me to ask if you could take care of this issue. If you need to contact him, I can give you his contact information.

Billy, it's never a good idea to publically post anyone's e-mail addy. You can PM it instead.

Nice job to not quote his link. That's proper netiquette, folks.

I did gave that some thought. The only reason that I decided to post it was because bob jenkins himself posted his own email address when some Forum members were inadvertently banished from the Forum during one of bob's antispam crusades. If bob himself hadn't posted his own email address, than I would have found some other way to get the job done.

He didn't post it as a live link, but as a bot-proof sequence.

I wondered why he "spelled it out", however I'm not quite sure what bot-proof means. Now I'm going to try to warm up a cup of tea in this new fangled microwave oven. It might take a while because I'm having trouble lighting the damn pilot light.

Meaning a bot won't recognize the "spelled out" version and bombard his inbox with spam mail.

In that case. I apologize to bob jenkins.

Note to bob jenkins: Almost all of the Nigerian princes that you will hear from will not really be princes. Most are con artists. The only real prince looks like this:



Problem is he was not born in Nigeria, but was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Either way, thank you gentlemen.

Thanks to APG for bringing this to Bob's attention, and thanks to Bob for dealing with it in a timely manner.


Yes, the look on my face when I read "Banned- indefinitely" was priceless.
Couldn't help wondering what I could have done or said to deserve exile, I do my best to be respectful in here, and know how to pick battles carefully, When I read "Warning Will Robinson" I realized what had happened.

So for Bob:

"I will NOT post smart azz remarks on spam threads, leading Bob to think I am a spammer."

"I will NOT post smart azz remarks on spam threads, leading Bob to think I am a spammer."

"I will NOT .... yeah, lesson learned.


Thanks again everyone.

If, "Warning Will Robinson", got your attention, then you must be over fifty-five.

Note: I got my thirty year IAABO service pin at our banquet tonight. I told the "Young Turks" at my table, "All I had to do to get this was to stay alive".

Nice!
Congratulations, that is something to be proud of, breathing that long and working the courts!


Actually, I am a 1979 vintage. However, I still remember watching re-runs when I was younger.
