or maybe my email got flagged for extra activity - either way, I recommend having lived in 1998 when this was made very clear to everyone who is not retarded

not only that...but when I take a swing back the posts get deleted....

Hard to get into a battle of wits/posts when the moderators are hypersensitive about you.

Either way, I've gotten a lot more compliments about the avatar then I've gotten insults. But anything that doesn't have juggling [censored] gets insulted in OOT these days.

Mods are deleting your responses? Sorry man. This is getting out of hand.

Where is [censored] when we need him to undelete your responses.

Re: watch what you download from email
 

no moderator can undelete posts. how would anybody know that it shouldn't have been deleted anyway?

Re: watch what you download from email
 

the easiest answer would be to repost it...if it vanishes again, we have someone else playing moderator

but I couldn't care less - I probalby hit preview and forgot to hit post - no biggie.

I wake up this evening and I have 10 emails -

mostly files with .zip attachments - saying my username and password are attached - it's come from half a dozen different sources.

Whenever I see a burst like this, there is a very good chance someone found a new exploit and is milking it while it's hot...

or maybe my email got flagged for extra activity - either way, I recommend Thunderbird or some non-microsoft program for email at all times and watch what you download.

Re: watch what you download from email
 

yeah, i think you are right, hackers are definitely taking advantage of a lot of new exploits and stuff lately. apparently my ebay, citibank, and visa accounts all got hacked somehow, but their security teams caught it, so they sent me emails and i just had to click on a link they sent me and fill out some details (just the standard acct info, old pw before hackers changed it, mother's maiden name verification, etc.) to reset all my account information and they are now going to send me new passwords and stuff. i'm not sure how this happened, but if they wouldn't have sent me those emails, i may have not noticed in time, as i don't check these accounts every day! glad to know their online security is working well.
