Plan B Forum

Just went to the old CSB. It now appears to have become Cyber Spam Box.

All but two forums have threads that are started by a spammer using the name of shbrbw428.

Thanks for the heads up Joe I just went and checked myself and managed to grab the spammers email address so I have pre-emptively added the email, email domain, and user name to the banned list here.

Cheers Joe. I have sent the G an email so he is aware of it.

Thanks for doing that RB, sound work!!

I sent him birthday greeting, rather than a demand fr his time.

Well done. I mean, it's not like Gar would care about his board being overrun with spam is it?

Fucktard!

It's just a shame that Gar is too nice a guy to tell you where to shove your 'help'...

WOW. Board amalgamation has commenced on the CSB.

I am cleaning up the database in preparation of combining the the two sites. Before I do this I need to clean up this database and these forums. The site may be down through the weekend but should be back up late Monday night or Tuesday (Thats July18th or 19th) I am sorry for this inconvience.

Happy birthday G.

Good news. Let's hope it works...

In another thread there was some discussion about a guy named Turing.

Being the jocular fellow I am I was gonna post something about the Turing from CSB.

Making Adjustments to the site and the forums
This board is in Maintenance Mode. I am cleaning up the database in preparation of combining the the two sites. Before I do this I need to clean up this database and these forums. The site may be down through the weekend but should be back up late Monday night or Tuesday (Thats July18th or 19th) I am sorry for this inconvience.

I came across this...

The csb should walk out onto the ice pack and die decently.

I cannot see why anyone cares what happens there anymore. There is no value there.

yrs,

Turing, now there's a blast from the past. A complete arsehole conspiracy theorist.

Turing was before my time at the CSB....

Isn't he the one that Gar wound up banning because he was trying to hack the site?

He spammed every thread with a HUGE picture file. This was back in the days of dial-up so it made everything slow right down and totally useless.

To the G's credit, he linked the image so Turing's point was made without the Board disruption.

I must admit, I really didn't remember him actually being banned. Though I also must admit, I don't remember much these days ....

I really didn't remember him actually being banned.

I believe I recall Steve having a back and forth with Gar about it some months back, when Steve was whining about people who he didn't like not being punished....

I thought you were there as long as I was Jim

I started posting there in late 2000, early 2001 CP, while the Cafe Darte was going to hell...

There was a period of about two years that I didn't post, around 2005-2006....(during which time Gar left, Gwen took over, and mediator went from being a white radical Randian to being a black left-wing militant)

I don't have any first hand knowledge of Turing...

From what I heard about him, I'd definitely remember a character like that....

Turing was a whack job.

I can't remember where he came from, I thought he followed everyone from Darwin like I did.

After 9/11 he went off the deep end with his conspiracy theories.

He like Steve was an Indie news buff, however I think Turing actually tried to supply some of them with copy.

He also had real medical issues, I believe he was bipolar...

I think it was at leas 2002 that I originally registered. I don't recall you actively posting when I first arrived in the second (or was it third) DAF exodus He came with me Steve, Timster, Keld and some others.

You're right Keld. He did come from the DAF... although I think it was some time after the initial exodus.

He was sort of a follower on from the Second exodus (as he wanted to keep bitching at Dr. X)
