Hi and welcome to Computer Help Forums

LOL you should fit right in here. do you have a certificate of insanity, preferably signed by a reputable psychiatrist, as we expect all our staff to have a discharge form from a reputable mental institute, regular medication and a good working knowledge of goo.. oops I mean computers

But seriously welcome and make yourself at home and feel free to post on threads if you feel you can help, or ask any questions you want

were all here to help each other and learn

Yes there is, hover over your inbox and select to start a new conversation.

Welcome to the forums from another looney.

 

I'm not too sure, as we recently changed to Xenofo from IPB, but we previously had some spammers trying to harass members using the PM system so we introduced a minimum post count before it activates, but yes we have a PM system even if you can't see or use it yet

 

ahh i shall have to make some posts and its nice to see a forum that has taken action against spammers i got hassled to hell trying to help some one remove the fake fbi virus

 

Hi and Welcome to Computer Help Forums.
All advice is posted on the forums and not by PM to our members if that's your intention.
Then everyone benefits from advice given.
Enjoy your stay.

 

Yes if your deemed to be a spammer your Banned and your IP is reported to the relevant Data Bases, same as all new registrations are checked against pre-mentioned Data Bases, obviously their are a ways around every automated system, but then we take great pleasure in Manually banning the few, unfortunately the PM system created a new challenge as we have no access to content unless included in a conversation, but after a quick debate we imposed a minimum post count before it becomes active for new members, which seems so far to have resolved the issue.

But we do have an excellent staff membership here and action is taken about complaints and reports, and we do understand the complexities of the English language and so understand a comment can be read by one person in one way could be read by another as offensive, but in such cases an apology, shake hands and play nice normal resolves most issue's.

we also assume that new members haven't read the rules and will inevitably break some when they start posting, in which case a quick PM pointing out the infringement normally resolves the problem.

so don't be scared to make a post, were not going to take action against accidental mistakes

 

Welcome to the forums and I hope you enjoy your stay with us. Whacky bunch indeed, present company included.
