With my somewhat measly 59 up there, I feel honoured to be thanked for something that isn’t difficult, or a chore, to begin with.

I love this place. It’s exciting to be a part of this new community as the kinks are worked out and the forum itself comes into its own. I’m certainly not the most knowledgeable user out there, but I am glad to help out where I can.

Yay altruism!

Edit: Woo! A fitting 100th post.

PARTY!!! (any excuse will do)

Are those real emails (i.e. are they bot harvestable?) or am I paranoid?

5

The Novell ones are. Most of the other ones look like:

enderandrew@no-mx.foru

Which not only is incomplete, but not my email.

Mine is. I find it rather useful to have a mail address so people can send me mails :slight_smile:

I’m pretty sensitised to plain view email addresses.

I do like the PM facility on this site because it pipes messages via a buffer that spam bots don’t penetrate.

I find that having a real email address in plain view of bots as harvestable text on a website causes an avalanche of spam that renders an address unusable fairly quickly.

I find that simply having only a graphic of an email address on a website is enough to cause large numbers of spam mails, to the extent of needing to change it approx twice a year. And that’s just for a picture of an address.

  • swerdna,

<shrug> My mail providers have good spam filters. I don’t care about the one or two spam mails sneaking through on a very bad day.

Boy, I guess I better get going if I want to end up on July’s list! :wink:

omg… I made it on a list… well, my alias did anyway… does that count as well?! :wink:

Thanks for the thanks Kgroneman!
It has been fun posting on the new site & I hope the list will keep growing!

Cheers!

I’ve actually been posting less lately. I’ve been busy.

enderandrew,

> I’ve actually been posting less lately. I’ve been busy.

Will you get your priorities straight?!? :slight_smile:

Yeah, I’ve been trying to tell my boss the same thing… he wasn’t amused… go figure! :wink:
