Just thought I'd flag this up - I don't know if it means anything, but it's clear that Google Spammers are getting their tuppenceworth from QBN's high Google visibility.

they work fast - a month ago i posted this:
http://www.qbn.com/topics/577886…
and i think there was a purge of them after that.
- Oh, ha ha! I should've checked through that thread, eh? Nice one, bigtrickagain.detritus

All the fake user account spam sucks on community sites. I run an artist driven site and we get 150 fake accounts a day. And they are real people sitting there doing it, too. It started at 800 a day until I added recaptcha and email verification, but there is still a human adding more and more spam. I'm really curious how in the long run all of the spam pays off and how much the person is getting paid to do it.

might help if qbn used a robots.txt file. don't allow spidering of the user accounts, they'll get no benefit from it.

do a favor then, find the active links i haven't yet and link them in the spam thread. noting an obvious exploitation and offering nothing in this sense is similar to shitting where you sleep.

how about blocking google, like most forums where people value privacy?
- but then how do you create tons of user accounts and sell medications?baseline_shift

er.. sorry, I'm now a bit drunk - are you having a go at me, v3? I genuinely didn't mean to try an offend - I noticed these links whilst looking for something completely different.
Admittedly, I haven't clicked on any other links, but the first one I have tried, http://www.qbn.com/buyprozac603/… , appears to have at least 30 'active links' as you put it.
I admit, I've tried no further.
Really though - I hoped I'd cleared the air with you, I'm not trying to score points here, certainly not with you specifically - I'm slightly hurt that you react as you do.

the "go" i was having is long over but yeah, i'm sure you're not the only one to find that. myself, jk and others are very aware of it and are all working on other things. if you think it's spam and have some links, drop them in the spam alert thread, i do take care of them. i'm just not spending anymore time googling site:qbn.com and deleting the meds, it consumes too much time weekly

"[We] are all working on other things."
"i'm just not spending anymore time googling site:qbn.com and deleting the meds, it consumes too much time weekly "
As you can see creating "TAD" logos IS the best use of time consumption and adds so much more to QBN as a whole

good point, dancer. as an unpaid, unemployee of qbn i should by all means spend my time satisfying you, you thick fuck

You don't really do yourself, or indeed this place, any favours, do you version3?
See, when you came back here many months ago, my reasoning for being harsh towards you then was based on your previous return, where you acted very much like you appear to be in this thread - needlessly aggressive and over-caustic (without any attempt at wit or self-depracation, which usually accompanies harshing on here, at least in my perception).
When I thought you were back to your old self (version2, say), as you were many moons ago, I felt quite bad about my reaction towards you, and so didn't want to engage in any cliquey negativity towards you. Hence my saying in my email to you that you might be wrong to assume that I dislike you.
Now I realise that, perhaps I was wrong.
I don't know what's going on in your head, but calling a talented, long-term member of QBN who has a good professional career a 'thick fuck' because they point out an irony in your stance is really quite weak and pathetic. Never mind having a go at me, when all I was trying to do was highlght smething - there are politer ways of saying "We already know", y'know.
Sorry, man. If you wish, you can undo that favour you did for me - I don't think I like the cost of it.
