flamed a spammer
« on: January 03, 2008, 06:07:25 PM »
>:D

On New Years' Day, somebody registered on AFF to post a spam survey, the same message in two different (and inappropriate) forum boards.  She obviously didn't read the rules because there's one that says "No studies!"  Another big no-no is she mentioned being an ABA therapist, not only that but having been one for years and apparently the boss of more of them.  I reported both copies of her message to the moderators and they have since disappeared.

Well, I didn't exactly flame her.  I just informed her that April Fools' Day wasn't for another three months.  I got a snooty reply, so I think she got the message that she had tread onto a site where she wasn't wanted.  (I'd imagine I'm not the only one who had a few words for her.)

I tried to lure her to I2, because I'm sure that here she'd get some real interesting responses, if you know what I mean.  :eyebrows:  I guess she wasn't stupid enough to take the bait, but it was worth a try.

with them.

No, I don't think so.  The spammer used her real name, and was obviously a complete and total n00b who knew little about Aspie sites and what they're all about.

Ah. Her surveys are always about face-blindness,
I think.

"Schmoo" replied to one of her face-blindness surveys and received a PM asking for more information  :laugh:

did she respond?  :laugh:

Well, I always know my owner,
but I don't know if I pay attention
to her face. I can smell her.

Sophie never read it, I only saw it when I signed on as Schmoo when I went a bit weird and decided to give zomg to Schmoo and Flo

I saw 1 unread message or whatever and clicked to see who it was. It was the same one I got, asking for more info from the people who posted in that thread. I think "Schmoo" had posted something about how she recognises people by their scent or something  :laugh:

Well, I told her about sensing by taste,
so I'm not so sure that shmoo's was that
out there.  :laugh:

Sophist is not a spammer.  If she starts a survey, it's not to spam a forum.

Garmonbozia, do you remember the spammer's name, by any chance?

If you read the post quoted,
you'd see that there was little evidence
of such. Sophist put two such surveys up
at WP, at one time. Not exactly spamming,
but no more than was accused here. Sometimes,
people use the word 'spam' differently from it's
accepted meaning.

Look at me.  :laugh:

Jenny somebody.  She's with some university over in the UK and was probing for parents' input for some pamphlet she was writing.
