OK, I've caught up with the goss - wonder if I'll get myself banned for insinuating that Webby is a hypocritical little snot . . .

Gawd, I need a new keyboard - my cup of coffee splattered everywhere laughing!
Especially when I saw your :dragon: hahahahahahahaa
But there's only a few who'd "get it", though we may well get an banning - which would be soooooo silly, just because we're all cracking up over the horrendous irony!!

The ads have never bothered me - probably because I have at least two apps preventing me from seeing them :wink:

Oh, of course, once the ads come in here, there will be rules implemented that say things like 'We will take action against any member running ad-blocking software (even though we have no fecking way of telling.)'

[styx]

I could be banned??? Oh no!!!

Hang on a sec - I regularly go for two weeks without even being tempted to visit that site anyway . . .

[styx]

heh heh - that sounds familiar, Kall :wink:

I just said something to that effect on the other site

The Google Bomb idea isn't working yet . . .

Hmmmm..

*thinks of addition to the board policies*

'nzb, and kall, hold no responsibility for anything you may post on other sites, and would feel especially bad if you managed to get yourself banned for mentioning this wonderful place.'

Heh heh heh Oh Great One!!
I think any possible (and ironic and hypocritical) banning, would be worth it, for the laughs this morning.

After all this is not a competition, nor is this a dating site, more an *interest group*, and there's hundreds of those around.....

(and hey, what's up with the emoticons today??)

Hmmm...well, let us see if we can get the admins of kallisti.co.nz and shattock.co.nz on board....we love web nazis.

I know them both pretty well...

(Amystery: it's only on the posts made prior to the changeover, they just need a moderator to edit them and resubmit them.)

Oh, looks like we don't actually have a icon....

[Sparklechick]

Sorry yeah, I was playing around with them not so long ago.

I've been resubmitting some of the threads today but it does take a little bit of time.

Fortunately I am doing fuck all at work so I have some time.

Fuck, I have to go clean up my old apartment ready for the real estate agency perusal so I get my bond back. Fuck. I'm going to have to clean it really well. Fuck. :grr:

Heh.. they have updated their Terms of Use.

"NZDating is a contact and friendship service, you may not use NZDating for research, employment or any commercial activity, nor can you use NZDating systems to discuss other dating sites or services. Promotion of anything via unsolicited messages is not allowed."

un•so•lic•it•ed ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ns-ls-td)
adj.
Not looked for or requested; unsought: an unsolicited manuscript; unsolicited opinions.

So, ANYONE sending something to someone who has 'not looking, just here for the boards' (ie: not requesting contact from others) is in breach of the first Term Of Use.

Sheesh.

Also, there's some pretty disturbing profiles out there...just saw one involving Jesus consuming faecal matter.

[Sparklechick]

Ewww that's pretty gross.

That site is just getting ridiculous now.

It's a shame we can't do a membership drive.

Of course, it doesn't say we can't ask for people's MSN addresses and then contact them that way.

Have to agree - *that* profile is downright disgusting!
And ironic, after the recent Admin post on *improving the standards of profiles* :shrug:

[kall]

Of course, I know exactly whose profile it is...he's obviously just doing it for the Bite Factor.

The thing is, they harp on and on about 'things not being in the best interest of NZD' and it being a 'friendship and dating site', and things like that are just so prolific.

If they want those things to be taken seriously, they should really do random profile audits. It's obvious that they monitor emails, from the 'not allowed to discuss competing dating sites, these messages may be discarded' thing.

[amystery]

as I understand it, monitoring is done with a *word search* programme, that picks up on key words....of course, I could be wrong :shrug:

[Sparklechick]

I'm guessing the nzboards is probably one of those keywords.

Perhaps a way around being caught out whenever we mention it is to write "our country's boards" and hope that people will figure it out.

"en zed boards dot com"?

They couldn't have 'boards' as a keyword. :P

On that subject, the General board must have 'blowjob' as one of the keywords.

Yes, well I found THAT one out didn't I?

My post got pulled before it even made it to the boards and then I got a warning from Webby about my abuse of the General boards.

I was quite offended because some of the stuff I've seen written on there (and not pulled) was far more offensive than what I wrote (in my opinion anyway).
