who do I contact about a suspicious user

Post by Tavaar »

Who should I contact about a user that has contacted me and is very suspicious (0-rating, 0-POSTS and a seriously suspicious user name)? There's no trade going on so I dont want to post anything in the bad users forum but want to let someone know in case its an issue. Thanks for any direction and info on who to go to with this.

PM a mod. Anyone with a red name. Eric loves that stuff, so MagickalMemories wouldn't be a bad idea.

Oh, you know me so well.

PM me AND Porkuslime. I don't expect to be online much in the next few days, but I desperately want the juicy details.

That said, keep in mind that we were ALL 0 post and 0 ref users at one time or another... and the name MagickalMemories is not exactly inspiring! LOL

Lower rating? You ship first.

Give me a sense of humor Lord. Give me the grace to see a joke.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

I'll have you know that this one is quite popular. In fact, when I change it I get requests to bring it back.
I think you're just upset because it mesmerizes you for hours on end.
...I try not to look at it, because that's what it does to me. LOL

'Tis true. It's also at the point were I saw the original gif (without the 300 addition) and looked at it thinking "Something's wrong about this...."
Positive feedback I have left for but have not received any in return: Stephen, oldgamer56

If you didn't look at my location know that I am in Canada

There are more than that.
There's the original, the dancing Leonidae (see right) and one with googly eyes and some sort of rainbow-ray or something that shoots from one of the kids' mouth. I had all three of them at one time or another.
The Leonidae are just my favorite of the 3.

There might even be more I'm unaware of.

Heck, at one point recently, they remade it as best they can & posted it to YouTube alongside the original (which, apparently, was a You Tube video).
