Weekend activities! (old thread reanimated)

So you have a few spammers who post a taste test to appear to be normal, to get past the 1st post moderator, then just go OTT thereafter. So you can’t just mod their 1st post, you must also limit posts per user per period of time, to match that a person cannot type too quick, and limit per I.P. per period as most people are sharing an I.P. with few other members.

It’s the same few members with just slightly different topics being repeated, this one is not hard to block if Anker wanted to. Same I.P. I betya.

It’s for Anker to deliver these features, and to allow moderators to tweak them, so block all posts by an I.P, to catch a real person making lots of different fake member accounts.

But I’ll not need to be in this community much longer as the King of Namibia himself is coming round to collect more Viagra from me now I bought $10k of it. So I’ll not need to discuss Anker products any more. :wave::raising_hand_man:

Let’s hope so for everyone’s sanity.
But especially for new members and first time posters who might have been lost in the chaos.

Spoke too soon.

Was at an antique market today.
So many things. Too many things.
I dont buy, as I dont need.
The customers : Old people only.
No young ones.
Those young ones dont care about antiquities at all.
E.g.porcelain?
The got plastic cups for coffee! :grinning:

I am that business since about 45 years.
I was collecting Art Noveau items quite a while.
Then I started selling when ebay started here.
It was an “El Dorado”.
You could sell quite everything.
And I did.
After that rush I have still some items.
But those few (they are’nt few…shhht) I need for my life style, my surrounding.
(I need some stuff to look at)
Some ceramics. paintings, furniture.

What I see and this makes me afraid.
When old collectors are passing away his descendants are squandering those collections.
I know my kids will not do this, because I told them the real value.
But who knows about “real value” in the future.

This was family talk, no spam

Unless this is a sophisticated DDoS attack, it’s coming from 1 I.P., these can be stopped with little effort. So, implicitly, none are working on it. I suspect the mods who are awake are waiting on the Chinese admin who has other higher priorities right now.

While I can dismiss at top of the window new threads, and so reply only to existing, this effectively stops any new useful threads til Admin acts.

I have great news, the Nambian King is very nearby, he sent an emissary who said I was going to be arrested unless I spend all day creating new threads and spend all day copy/paste. He’s taken my passport and money.

If you will stay prisoned and arrested the next few next weeks I can send you bottles of beer to survive.
Don’t know were your jail is, but if in UK there is a limit of ONE bottle now! :joy:

Found out today, Google likes my photos, as apparently, my shared images have had almost 100k views… WtF!

If you share images on Google Maps, such as … You went to Costa coffee, want to share that pic you took of your latte? … Ok …

Go to GMaps, and too left, and click CONTRIBUTIONS

then click PHOTOS.

It’ll tell you then, how many you’ve shared, how many views, what each photo has gotten.

I have well over 300k views on my photos.

This one here has the most views out of them all

I have a lot of views too, some of them in obscure parts of the world which makes me think these aren’t real people but bots.

I see we’re hiding away in updated threads from spammer. :roll_eyes:

@MacBlank @Tank
I see at the top of the screenshots you guys shared it says, local guide • level 6 • 1603 points
Can you do anything with those points?

No photos, no likes, no views, not shared.
Neanderthaler! :rofl::rofl::rofl:
