No abuse department at an ISP like Comcast is just going to hand over a user's private info just because someone reports them. 🙄

An ISP will only release private data to the FBI if they present a valid warrant. That’s the end of it.

stormybadger8 said:Since when were clones completely banned?🤷

And who says clones are strictly forbidden? 😕

What you just described is strictly prohibited. And let me be crystal clear on this one... using a clone to post on a PDF where someone else holds partial ownership is also against the rules.

How am I supposed to give an answer when there isn't even a question? 😕

nimbleviper142 said:In the moderator section right under the archives, there are still threads explicitly stating that such things exist and that you guys actually use them. But hey, maybe I'm just wrong. It's probably just an urban legend, much like those rumors about moderator salaries. Nothing is ever written about that either.😁

On this moderator board?

The one where every single thread just happens to be started on March 30th or maybe a day later? 🤣🤣🤣

take a look at this:

Here are a few maps. 😉

ambergardener35 said:I checked my settings. I'm certain I didn't check "enable private messages".

What is the issue here?

Exactly. You have to check it. "Enable private messages" means just that.

I don't see anything weird about that. That's just life.

It wasn't me labeling them, it's just what science says, and science is pretty much what our laws are built on. And the law says that trying to treat cancer by rubbing your hands on your head is definitely quackery.
As long as those laws are in place, you kind of have to follow them. 🙂

Now, this is worth discussing. I think it’s actually the minority who will see the stupidity here; the majority will believe absolutely anything as long as there's decent advertising or if they hear it repeated enough times. Just look at those bogus tea brands you see on late-night infomercials...

So you're basically saying you just showed up to complain without any intention of actually paying? You don't even care about the sponsorship? Fine. But I have no idea why you're even bringing it up then.

Why are you even posting here instead of over in marketing? What's the point of this? 🤷

If I’m not mistaken, this subforum has been merged with another one... Let me double-check which one specifically and I'll get back to you...

EDIT:
Yeah, it was merged with the Democratic Party. All the threads that used to be over at Mystery, Tennessee, have moved over to the Democratic Party now.

It’s just not possible. I’ve stripped it down as much as humanly possible. Honestly, I have no idea how you could make it any simpler without gutting the functionality entirely. Go ahead, feel free to explain your way.

loneraven20 said:Why hasn't this been simplified so I can just do what I want with one single click?

😕

Why aren't cars built so you can just press a button and end up wherever you want, instead of dealing with steering wheels, gear shifts, pedals, and all those other controls? I mean... what kind of question is that? 😕

That's because you haven't been sent to the ban corner. Only those who are banned, along with the mods and admins, can post there.

RJ-11 is for phone lines. RJ-45 is for networking.

I doubt you’ll get anywhere here without actual data—like links to the posts, the moderator's name, or the specific PM reported... Now the admins have to go through this mess. 🤷

reddriver35 said:The question is this: if I have the right to edit a post, does that mean I also have the right to correct a mistake? Or not? Perhaps I’ll just end up getting insulted, mocked by all sorts of moderators, or banned entirely.

I can't speak for everyone else, but as far as I'm concerned, you can definitely fix the mistake. If I happened to issue you a penalty in the meantime and you go ahead and rectify the error, feel free to ask me to rescind it. I wouldn't have any problem with that.

It’s one thing if you're just running an ad and decide to leave it up for an hour before pulling it down. Or if you send a message to someone you know is active just so they see it before you delete the rule-breaking content. If you're trying to game the system like that, there's no hiding from the consequences—at least not in my book.

reddriver35 said:Second question: am I just supposed to sit here while a moderator insults me and gets away with it?

Of course not.
