Dumb Question!!?

qtpaintsrus · 04-17-2007, 11:49 AM

Did anyone pay attention to the fact that the "newest" registered member name was "choseung hui"? That is the student that killed all those kids in VA. Why do people have to be so rude and crude? That is just totally uncalled for!

Some people have no sense of honor or respect.

Forums are magnets for stupid people. They sign up, make up fake careers and interests (sex, anyone?) but thankfully don't post anything--most of the time.

VickiE · 04-17-2007, 01:07 PM

They also have to go through the Mods to be activated...that is why none of them ever post.

I have a little filly that was born on March 22nd, that looks exactly like the foal in your Avatar photo. I would show you, but I have no clue on how to get photos on my posts without messing up my Avatar picture?

VickiE · 04-17-2007, 01:23 PM

Oh really?? I'd love to see her!

Disgusting.

I sent you a PM! Hope it helps.

qtpaintsrus · 04-17-2007, 01:39 PM

Did it work Vickie?

VickiE · 04-17-2007, 01:40 PM

Yes!

Look at her! She sure does look like the little filly in my avatar!

Good job!

qtpaintsrus · 04-17-2007, 01:43 PM

Thanks Vickie...I guess I just didn't wait long enough for the pic to load so I just kept on deleting it before it had a chance to upload I guess

VickiE · 04-17-2007, 01:44 PM

Hehe, I have a problem with patience some days too!

Glad to help!

That is another reason to say thanks to all the moderators!

Hi guys... I just wanted to comment quickly in here in regards to this.

If you ever see a disturbing user name, please, go ahead and send a PM to any moderator about it.
They can make sure it gets bumped off the screen, and can give a heads up to the welcome wagon crew.

I can guarantee you that our welcome wagon does not activiate anyone with disturbing names.
Most of the time, they are computer spammers that join, using a name that is popular in the news.

Every member goes through an active search to weed out spammers, before activation occurs.
(This explains why, when you join, it takes a day for them to set up your account.

)

Thankfully, one of our members pointed this one out quickly (and actually gave us a little help)...
Thank you, Touche!
