We can't actually run a support forum, if people are just posting bollux at the end of every thread |
I'd like to guess at that please, I'm sure I've already had a pop at this member for pointless posting |
and now i have just realised who you mean too. anyway, can you tell me where to find this coop thingy, PLEASE????
Love rach xx

Go into the control panel and its under the last option called extras i think and in the little wright up about what this option offers there's a link to the page that lets you set this up.

it is not in the slightest aimed at anyone with a legit question or point to make, in fact the serial spammer has just been banned. _________________

Someone getting banned from this forum does not effect their own forum, except so far as the fact they are going to struggle to find support, as we only offer support via this forum
We try really hard not to have to ban people, but sometimes we have to I see Soul still has 80 largely useless posts left making him 40th top poster on this forum in the space of two months membership despite me and Symon deleting dozens of his spamming posts.
He was warned by Symon and me, and both times responded that it was somehow our fault for not locking/archiving topics others also complained in posts about him spamming, but he carried on regardless.
We simply will not and can not tolerate behaviour that wrecks our ability to support people.
We can enjoy some banter on these forums in offtopic, but the rest of the forum needs to be about being able to offer decent support. _________________
