yeah it'd be boring without the flash footers! To add a flash footer go to kirupaforum.com and in the upper right corner of the screen under the welcome-messages click "[ learn how to add a flash footer ]" <--- or sth like that!
:)
ye that's it =)

Errrr now I’m confused…
All I meant was that some of the other forums I belong to usually have some sort of get together for locals / people willing to travel. That’s all.

January 17th, 2003, 03:40 PM
Hey that sounds like a good idea, a Kirupa get together. The problem with that is the fact that everyone here is spread out around the world so it would be difficult.

Yeah that’s the same with all the other forums I frequent.
We can arrange one for the LA area and anyone willing to travel or that lives here anyway can come.
Someone else might want to set one up in say Canada.
And so on...

yeah i was thinking of that too. but i want to travel the globe anyway, and so does my mom, so i was thinking that if i ever did in the near future i would make stops in all (most) of the cities or near by cities and we could all meet, and i would tape it then bring it into my comp and post each leg...i think that would be cool

HAHAH EG, don't wait for me either. I probably have a 6 decade drive.
Maybe it will come here to Philly soon!!!
Then they could get robbed repeatedly!

Welcome, and you might want to edit your post with your email, so the bots won't get you...

I would, but I will be fashionably late, so that way by the time I get there, everyone will be fleeing for their lives and I can snatch whatever I want. Maybe a new computer too :beam:

See EG. You can hang out at my house (safe inside... I think), then we can both show up late and get what we want ;)

Hey that's a good idea and we can have Alex carry some of our loot, of course we'll give him a brand new shiny quarter for the work. :P
lostinbeta
January 17th, 2003, 05:45 PM
A Quarter!?
No way.... that would get mugged right out of his pocket on his way home.
Oh wait..... Ok... A quarter it is ;)..... :beam:
Alex
January 17th, 2003, 05:51 PM
only a quarter? how about a new computer with everything. Macromedia programs and a tip of 4,000 and that should do it.
:P
or we could hire some one to carry it all and give him/ them only a quarter.
eyeinfinitude
January 17th, 2003, 05:54 PM
Until we find a replacement, you're going to be stuck with the job Alex so hold on to that quarter tightly.
wow we spammed up Kel's welcome thread really bad....I'm sorry Kel, but this is one thing you'll get use after awhile on this forum. :beam:
lostinbeta
January 17th, 2003, 05:55 PM
Yeah Spam happens a lot here. We are a very social group.
And ironically, spambots love the board too as Rev posted. We once saw a spam bot scanning this board for like a week straight (or more)!!!

January 17th, 2003, 05:59 PM
How can you tell when a spambot is here or scanning the forum Lost?

Alex
January 17th, 2003, 06:00 PM
there has to be a way to find out that there is a bot on here. through java and then kirupa could kick them out for good
wishful thinking... i know(-:
lostinbeta
January 17th, 2003, 06:01 PM
It spends like an hour in a thread before moving on to another one and spending an hour in there....lol.
It comes in as guest and just goes through threads, and it sometimes says e-mailing member, and stuff like that.
Kirupa tried to ban the IPs (there were two doing the same thing), I don't think it worked though.
eyeinfinitude
January 17th, 2003, 06:02 PM
So it's actually a person that goes through each thread? I'm clueless here. :-\

No, it isn't a person, it is a bot. Like a program that runs from a computer that searches for e-mail addresses. Much like the spiders that search engines use to find sites.
