    Why is every message in the lounge being marked as SPAM / ABUSIVE? Just curious. If it is a CPer, then STOP IT! :D

      Nah - it doesn't work: Using IP based Geolocation - and why it's pretty much useless.[^] I use the DNA residue they leave on the site via the keyboard when they post... ;)

      I see you've been traveling to London, Birmingham, and Llanelli and you visited them in two days. Did you manage to try the local chocolate ?

              I just check my rep history and I can't see any abuse / spam kicks being applied to me recently. How are you sure that "every message in the lounge being marked"? Or is it just yours? Have you annoyed anybody recently?

                But it wasn't my message that was posted that was marked as spam, it seems to be everyone's message... ...or are you saying it is just the VIEW I am seeing or something?

                  I figured someone was really marking my messages as Spam and wasn't going to complain, but then I saw that every message in lounge was being marked that way I wanted to bring it to someone's attention. So are we all just being apathetic today? Do we just ignore this? :D

                    I'll second that. I try to annoy as often as possible. But I'm trying to get this message across which will probably annoy more people and the message is that EVERYTHING IS MARKED AS SPAM!!!! Can you hear me now!!!???!!! :D

                        Also, another problem, I'm trying to upvote the messages I've posted and having no luck. :D Yes, I'm kidding. I'm dropping the whole spammy thing. Sorry to all. Must've been confused. Trying to catch the perpetrators and they have not have been. :D

                              It sounds like you are saying if you downvote someone it costs you a point. Surely you can't be saying that? :confused:

                                  That's how I once read it in the FAQ. Seems downvoting is now 2 points worth, but it doesn't "cost" you any point to downvote someone. Strange, I've long been assuming it cost you a point, even checked that once or twice. ..soo, downvoting is free, hrm? :rolleyes:

                                        That's how I once read it in the FAQ. Seems downvoting is now 2 points worth, but it doesn't "cost" you any point to downvote someone. Strange, I've long been assuming it cost you a point, even checked that once or twice. ..soo, downvoting is free, hrm? :rolleyes:

                                        Yes, have at it. :laugh: I actually downvoted something in a forum today and I got 0 points. Not sure if that was +0 or -0 but it didn't seem to affect me. :)

                                        There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

                                          I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

                                          Ah, well, if he's quoting his book (e.g. with words like "it" and "the", which were used in the book), then it's obviously spam, and should be flagged as such.

                                          I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
