Is this it? Is this how this forum goes down? Just being flooded by lots of porn links?

We have things in place to help prevent it. Obviously some still gets in. Nothing we can do about it with the capabilities in phpbb unfortunately.

Report them, shoot us a message if possible, we will get them.

I think I cleared out the porn ones. If I missed any, let me know. I also banned the users.

Welp. Someone just created a new account and started creating another spammy thread with spammy responses.

Fuck sake...lol. Probably in response to my ban message to them, which read: fuck you bitch. Followed by: fuck off with your porn spam.

Well, I feel like this is a SFW forum. I go this place all the time when I'm at work and don't have anything important to do. Now imagine, if this place was littered with porn links? Higher-ups would have a field day with me and would probably find all the leverage to sack me earlier than expected (because of a merger, and my position is expendable. Not because I can't do my job right). Besides, it's pron. You can find it in places you don't even expect to.

I don't have the mod powers. Do you see red text on my name and the title that says Blood Machines? I would rather see Zaz get modship before I do.

Kev is a double agent. I’ve been suspicious of him since he joined.

Well, I found myself in another parking dilemma. I got tickets to see Lindsey Stirling on Wednesday at the Pacific Amphitheater in Costa Mesa which is right next to the OC Country Fair. My intention is to get to the location at around 5:00-5:15 and the first act starts at 7:30. I've been reading some reviews on Yelp and elsewhere and they are saying that parking and traffic control in that area is terrible. I may have to consider taking an Uber for this one. Could cost me $30.00 more than if I get the $10.00 parking pass, but to hell with waiting in traffic for an hour, find out that you are not even going to get a spot, and miss an act that you spend $50.00 for.

Edit: All right, plan B. I may take a chance at parking at the local church next to the area. They may help me out here and they are charging a $10.00 fee for parking in their area.

I just spoke to someone in their office and they told me that they should be able to have a spot at before 6:00PM, but suggest to call in the day of before 2:00 PM to see how full the lot is or how full will it be on that day and if I am that worried, I can call just reserve a spot over the phone.

I was told that PNC Pavilion in Charlotte is a nightmare for parking and I spent about 5 minutes getting in and about 10 minutes leaving. I was shocked lol.

Honestly, in all of my concerts I've been to this year, getting in and getting out when it comes to parking wasn't a hassle at all. Fivepoint Amphitheater was free parking in the two shows I sent to a few weeks ago and I had no issues getting out (although that may have to do with the fact that I was probably the first guy in the area to get to the parking lot and then probably the first few out when the show ended).

Anywho, I think the concerns when it comes to parking it due to the fact that the OC County Fair is happening at the same time as well, but it doesn't excuse the fact that this is apparently a major issue for a long long time. Another sad thing about it is that the area is right across the Costa Mesa Police Department so this kind of thing when it comes to traffic control should have been mitigated.

Anywho, I'm parking at the church nearby. All they ask is a $10 donation to help support church activities and I may give them another $10 if they are able to make the process very smoothly in comparison to if I parked in the main area of the amphitheater and OC Country fair. The lady on the phone gave me some tips on how to get to their parking lot easier since the main street the fair is in will be clogged around rush hour.

At the OC county fair filled up on turkey leg tacos waiting for Lindsey Stirling.

Coming to the fair is a mistake. I’m going to die of fried and sugary food. It’s nice knowing you all. You guys are the greatest.

Why don't you use some easy form of captcha to prevent those bitches from popping up again?
