CRITICAL SPAM ALERT

 

It looks like the thing just ran stuck. The two accounts got mixed up and the one started to post in the thread of the other. There it stopped (hopefully).

 

Anyway, we know where to go for some happy ending.

@The Computer Audiophile Wow. Critical it is.

How do you know it's not top secret latest version of Chinese AI program source code.?

I just had to use the term non-critical site priority last night.

So I went about using 3 other browsers and every step I described in the answer I gave above.  Which should be clear enough reasoning why I will not octuple check again.  

 

Your problem with Math and reasoning aside, I'll take that as an octuple no. I do though  thank you for your efforts.

David, try this : Go to Thailand for a nice vacation, your wife in advance telling you to be keen on Thai massage.

"No no no, of course they don't do the happy ending", is what she is telling you.

 

Sure.

How come the "ignore user" feature is not ignoring the spam?

Jonathan, good point. ... Because this topic titles are not subject to that filter ?

I think ignore user is working as designed, but ignore topic is not ... unless the topic is changing, I can't read Korean.  Google translate does a nice job on the content, it says 'I am a lonely woman, baby'!

I'll  say it once more here - if you want to skip the spam guys - go to page 51.

This (51) counts for the General forum.

For the Digital to Analog forum it is page 13.

Never mind, because the bugger is back.

[rickca]

The Korean spammer is the only guy who posts more than beerandmusic.

@The Computer Audiophile Guess who's back?  Our Asian friends seem to be exploiting something new in this section and Music, Downloads, & Streaming.

[The Computer Audiophile]

Blocked them for now.

How to embed youtube videos without email identification showing?

 

Hi,

I can embed a youtube video by pasting the "share link" (NOT the embed code option). You get the option of *auto embed* or keep as a hyperlink when pasted into a CA post.

 

The problem is the "Watch Later" link remains embedded and hovering over this in the completed CA post shows your email address!

 

I assume that when you hover over the link it will display *your* email address, not mine, but can someone confirm this? It still makes me uneasy seeing my email displaying on a public forum.

 

I also noticed that the option to paste the share link with the Youtube "embed option" code does not work in CA. Pasting into the forum post just displays the code. The advantage of the "embed option" code on the youtube site is that it has additional controls. Does anyone know how to do this?

 

Cheers

David

 

Hi David,

I saw the video you posted and I confirm that I see my own email address when on the 'Watch later" option.

 Thank you, that is precisely the confirmation I was seeking.

Might need a probation period for new members, methinks ...

[The Computer Audiophile]

Most are using email addresses from posdz.com.

 

I will try blocking that domain, or perhaps see if I can put users in a queue who join from specific geo areas.

Chris, we've talked about eliminating the posts of ignored users from the activity stream.  As an extension of that idea, I'd also like to automatically ignore any new topics started by ignored users.  A very large percentage of posts are generated by a very small number of users.  They overwhelm the activity stream and make it difficult to productively keep up with the latest useful developments.

[The Computer Audiophile]

It would be cool if we could create an activity stream that excludes content from specific people, rather than an activity stream that includes certain people.

That's exactly what I'd like.  I'd also like to exclude topics started by those same people.
