This guy ONISION has sent a PM to Rainwife, inviting her to log on to a certain forum.
She asked me to have a look and once their I found this message in their equivalent of the shoutbox:

Hello I just got here. Onision invited me. If that's alright with everyone.

So obviously Iron:Scarecrow also got such a PM.
Has anybody else recieved a PM by this guy, who BTW hasn't made a single post in our forum?

Danny252 14-10-2005 11:08 PM

Obviously here just for advertising.
I haven't got a PM myself, but I have got pm's similar to it, one where someone asked for Wolf3d.
I didn't even bother replying.

Lonely Vazdru 15-10-2005 12:58 AM

I didn't receive any PM from this guy. Am i deemed unworthy ? :blink:
Not that i care of course ! :D

Blood-Pigggy 15-10-2005 01:00 AM

Shh, it's a conspiracy.

Bobbin Threadbare 15-10-2005 01:15 AM

Soo... What's this forum about? Perhaps he gets points or something if he invites someone.

Tom Henrik 15-10-2005 01:17 AM

Danny, and anyone else for that matter, if people ask for warez over PMs, then forward the PM to an admin, and the admin will deal with it.

As for blatant advertizing abuse like this.... gaaah. :tai:

SHHH dont you guys even know hes willa wonka and thats his chocolate factory :ph34r: you guys got the golden tickets...

Didn't receive such a PM, and wouldn't go if invited. As far as I'm concerned, it's slagging off somebody else's board when a new member does that. Their sole purpose is to recruit members. It's kind of like somebody walking into your house during a get-together, saying they just arrived on the block, only to quietly use the opportunity to collar everybody and ask 'em to go some place else.

I have recieved such a PM as well, but it didn't seem interesting enough to try out. Too bad :P

Should I forward it towards someone or isn't that nescesary (man, how do you spell that word)?

Well, this guy is a moderator of that forum (could even be the owner). I'm not sure. It seems it only about talking... It's called message hordes or something and it says - where the messeges never end.
:blink:

Somebody post the link... I feel like signing up to their board and doing the same thing to them. Although abandonia wouldn't sanction such a thing so ill make some random forum to do it. See how he reacts.

It seems that the messages ended... if they are going to recruit new member from other forums...

Anyway, he didn't contacted me :cry:

Abi79 15-10-2005 10:15 AM

And you are sad ? A person who steals members from other sites can't have a good site/forum. Why would he need new members if his site would be good, thus having a lot of members (like Abandonia has) ? Did the AB admins ban him ?

And no, I didn't receive such a PM

Heh. But the only good way is really an outright ban, in my opinion.

Member group: Banned - I suppose that would explain why he hasn't been sending any more PMs recently...:whistle:

Abi79 15-10-2005 01:22 PM

Oh. I wonder for how much time :evil:

Danny252 15-10-2005 01:42 PM

no negative postcount? must've been tom

Spoonman 15-10-2005 01:45 PM

Well, since the person is banned I guess it's not necessary (thank you AJ) to do anything with that message then :)

Mr.Snuggles 15-10-2005 03:24 PM

What is the meaning of the message anyway? :yawn:

Isn't that what has been discussed since the beggining of this topic?

Data 15-10-2005 06:00 PM

Stealing members is bad.
We will see if can prevent this in future.

Thank you for your reports.
Case closed :)
