We've recently had a couple of newer posters flooding the boards with junk posts. The posters' goal is to win prizes by attaining a certain number of posts. Please note that we are on to that scam. Post flooding will not be tolerated here, and members caught trying to flood the forums will be banned for life!

Agree totally. I dont know if it was my reply to a thread that developed this thread, or if u guys figured it out, but i agree totally. The worst part is it specifically says "only usefull posts will be used" no spam or bs.

I am glad that you guys have done something about it. That xyi joined and like 3 days later had 265 posts. That is just insane. He would answer questions that have already been answered or been dicussed. Makes us legit posters upset.

As well here but he would answer everything or have a comment on every post, even made a pointless thread saying he posts to much oh well lol...
Yup, and how about that guy mmilosav?!?!
I nearly shit myself when I signed onto the forum today and noticed 3 pages worth of new posts...in multiple sections of the forum, no less...most recently replied to by none other than mmilosav.:sm30
He just joined and got about 75 posts throughout the course of one day! Most of them were useless or complete and utter bullshit, of course.
What an unnecessary pain in the ass to have to browse through all of these just to be able to find new, actually-legitimate posts.:mad:
Glad to see fellow mods and the admins. cleaning up this riff-raff.
Thanks for posting this sticky, Big Al.
Big Vine:rolleyes:
P.S. I just clicked on mmilosav's user profile...with this being his first (and last, thank you very much) day of posting, his bloody post rate is "75 per day"!
Totally fucking ridiculous.:mad:

Wow in my opinion its due to the free products this site advertises. So many fools wanna rush into the consideration that the products produce fast, and a cheap way of getting a bigger dick. What they should be doing is taken advice from peps here. Big Vine he posted a reply to my thread i created after i came home from vacation, saying "good to see ur post again" lol when did u say he joined. I created that over a month ago LOL!!!:sm24
Lol! Yeah, I noticed that too. Who does this guy think he's fooling here?
At least we won't be bothered by him anymore, although I'm sure that before too long, we'll see others like him posting inappropriately here as he did.
I agree with you about how this sort of thing seems to have been brought on as a result of the free products giveaways. It's really too bad that some people choose to ignore the stipulations of the giveways (i.e. the part about "useful" posts) and instead only end up cluttering up the forum---all for no reason, really, since they just end up being banned anyway.
Hopefully this thread will bring this to their attention so that this sort of fiasco can be avoided in the future.

Agree what is even funnier is simple manual pe is the best method in my opinion, and they could get that for free by simply asking.

LOL yeah to be honest, I don't even care what the competition is cos I don't want the free sizegenetics kit (or whatever it is) cos I wouldn't know where to hide it from my parents. They like come into my room while I'm at work and clean up :eek: . I'm gonna gain that inch and a half length from just pure manual PEing!! :sm16
Just for the organisation running this comp, why not change the competition to have each user vote once (by whatever date) on which user they think has produced the most QUALITY posts? And they can't vote for themselves. :sm31

Well I think they want everyone to participate and want to reward everyone for doing so. They could do it on time, but then some people might never post. I want some of the rewards, but I am not gonna flood. I have more respect for the company, myself, and others on the forum to do that.

Just to clarify, there's nothing wrong with posting a lot, as long as you're not posting junk.

I read this thread and I wanted to make my first post here. I actually have been reading here for a many many hours now and I am happy I registered. I was taking PSP for like six weeks without PE at 3 a day until I came here. I know I am stupid. So now I am with the program since a few days ago. Everybody here rocks! Mahalo:D :D

True enough, I personally, want to win the products to try them out, but I try to actually have some feedback or at least a GOOD question to ask. It just seems to flow a lot easier if you ask questions that you REALLY want to know and say things that are worth saying.

Maybe there should be some sort of waiting period before you can start earning for prizes? That would most likely weed out some of the people in it just for free products. Say your post count does not count towards your total points unitil you have been an active member for say 3-4 weeks? I'm not sure how that would be implemented easily, but it's an idea none the less.

We're keeping an eye out for post flooders :)

if i see a post where i think i can give some helpful information im afraid to sometimes because i think you guys will think im just flooding and i wont be able to get any rewards so i sometimes sit back and dont say anything but actually i get more satisfaction from possibly saying something that will help a guy achieve his goals so he will have more self confidence in himself than knowing if i bullsh*t alot of stuff i can get products cheaper, anyway just had to get that off my chest

I thought the same thing when i started here but then though im not trying to get anything for free here or any products at a cheaper price so if i feel I can help or give some other opinion to a subject then i should.

Helpful information is always a good thing, especially when it's well thought out and said correctly. A lot of guys like to repeat information that other members have already posted. Don't get me wrong, I'm guilty of this myself, and I have to make sure that I pay close attention before responding to a thread. The key is to read everyone's input in that thread. It might be boring and all, but the key to PE is to READ! You can’t be lazy in PE! PE is all about self discipline. Without discipline you can’t expect to get far. That's all it takes. A lot of members come on the board asking 1 Million questions, and then want to get upset when their answers aren't being answered. That's because they've been answered before, on numerous occasions. :sm34
There are a lot of questions that haven't been answered yet, and if you can't honestly find them on the forum, than that's when you post a thread. BUT I SERIOUSLY DOUBT THAT! The gentlemen that take the time out to answer don't have to, and it's disrespectful to other members when you keep hitting them with the same questions over and over again. Can you imagine the frustration? :sm33 Let’s face it; the majority of men are expecting someone else to do all the hard work for them. They don’t want to take the time out to go through the headaches when trying to figure all this stuff out, so they post 20 thousand threads asking questions expecting someone else to hand it to them. Start doing your homework, and anytime you approach a question or a topic, act as if you want an “A” on your report, or essay.
This isn’t directed to anyone in general, but if you know you’re guilty of all of this, then this is for you.
Sorry for bitching. :D

A little off topic sorry, but its for QL. In just 3 months you gained over an inch in length and girth? Did you just use PE or did you use pills as well? I'm sure you get this question alot so I apologize ahead of time. And if this is one of those bad posts and it makes me guilty of asking bad questions, I apologize again.
