Call me Firebird. Hello!

[Firebird]

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I'm a "Projects Coordinator" for a firm that handles racing events for the automotive aftermarket; this means I do way too much uninteresting sh&t to list. Hobbies...hhmmm, how long should this list be (lol)...amateur photography, funeral/remembrance jewelry making, reading, competitive driving, equine rescue.

2. Where are you from?
Southern Indiana...the armpit of the midwest.

3. Who is your favorite author?
I got my first Stephen King novel when I was 9 and have been a Constant Reader ever since.

4. What are your favorite films?
I have horrible taste in films. I could watch Backdraft, Tombstone, and Transformers all day long and never tire of it.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
Considering it would be my third, it will have to be something about money, because if I'm going to have to go through that again, he'd better be loaded.

6. At your funeral?
I have a playlist already made for this. Among other things, a few tracks from the Transformers score and Metallica's S&M album.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
Quick, easy, and soon.

8. What kind of casket would you want?
None. Cremated, put into individual vials and handed out at the funeral. People can scatter me wherever they think is appropriate.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
Anything that shows a little cleavage. Or a lot of cleavage. The girls like attention.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Family.

11. What's your favorite band?
I'm going to have to go with Metallica. Flame away.

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
High school grad. Didn't have the desire for continuing education.

13. Why did you join?
When browsing, I thoroughly enjoyed the mix of sarcasm and intelligence found here. That doesn't exist in southern IN. Besides, I telecommute, so the only beings I talk to all day long are pugs; and the subjects they enjoy discussing are limited to food and belly rubs. I am desperate for intelligent communication!

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
Female

::bumping the actual threads so that they're slightly easier to find in amongst the flood of spam... mmm... spam.::

[Firebird]

Ok, I'll play; I'm intrigued. Cool trick. I've gotta admit, it took me a minute. Blame it on lack of coffee. But why hide?
Thank you, Miss Absynthe; there does seem to be a high spam content

[Acharis]

Holy shit the absolute prolific egregious advertismal bumfodder right now.
If I had my spam broom on this forum I would whack it into piles and watch it disappear down a virtual toilet.

Reports to admin will be useless, so everyone start giving the spammers infractions pls.


Welcome Firebird. There's plenty of sarcasm here, and occasionally intelligence.

[Firebird]

Thanks! I was curious about that; are the admins just absent? Looks like a vBulletin format, the spam should be seriously easy to collar if someone gave it five minutes of attention.

[Acharis]

I know. The owner of the forum I'm talking about has made it so people need to be approved first, so this couldn't happen. But if it did, I'd simply permaban these fuckwads and opt to delete all posts for each as I went.

But here, the admin doesn't do shit. He/she simply lets us police ourselves with infractions, and on average almost never checks up. (And only then to issue illogical bans. Usually for criticising the advertisers/sponsors Blueblood)



Oh god. It's still going faster then I can issue infractions. Someone just mod me.

[BourbonBoy]

Yeah the page has been hit pretty hard. I've actually lost track of the ones that I've given infractions to.

[Acharis]

Sorry for jacking your welcome Firebird.



Me too BB. The points were stacking up on a few of the worst spammers, but I don't know how many points constitute a ban for here. Don't bother messaging as that won't dissuade them. Also know that clicking the warning box will result in no infraction points being given, so don't do that.

Maybe let's gang up on a really bad one, then when it's banned target the next?
