It is getting very annoying.

dbiel Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 This post does not seem to refer to Spamcop or the SpamCop Forum in that the listed user is not a member of this forum. So my assumption would be that you are using a similar forum which appears to be indicated in your code. The question is over my head so will leave it to Wazoo to reply.

Not only does the person need to confirm to post anything on that forum, also to have a URL listed in user profile." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turetzsr Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 ...When I did a search for a member of these fora named Cyvellao, SpamCop returned an empty result. Is this a real SpamCop Forum member or are you talking about an entirely different forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I very much doubt if anyone other that Wazoo could possibly have an answer to the question; but then, who knows how many other BBS admins visit our site.
