You're right there PM ,,must have been totally bored to dig up a six year old thread..I tend not to read too much of threads that are over a month or so old they just tend to be repetitious.with not much new content

I bet that the sneaky link is the reason.

To be fair, it was another member who 'dug it up'. This thread was created and ran its course in 2014, but was necro'd in July of this year. So not a lot of 'digging' was required to find it this time.

I've never understood the problem people have with thread necromancing. Sure, if it discusses a game mechanic or something else that has been invalidated through changes or new information I can see why we would want to avoid confusion. But in most cases, if it's relevant to the discussion it's relevant to the discussion, regardless of how long ago it was last replied to.

I have a thread in the RTS forum about Europa Universalis IV. I started it in 2014. I went two years at one point without adding to it, then when I picked the game up again I used it once again. I don't see the problem and I prefer that over starting a new thread. For me it's a better resource than splitting it in multiples over some arbitrary line in the sand that says it's too old.


No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

The problem I have with this oxygen thief is that having been challenged by mods, he went on to modify his post to include an incitement to gamble and a link to an online casino.
Scum bag of the highest possible order.

And the edit isn't just the link snuck in... it is a wholesale reversal of the original text, and the whole point, purpose and tone of this thread.

to tell you the truth, all those posters are okay if they post something useful on the right topic, I mean, useful information is always needed, especially if it is relevant. Maybe he'd revived such an old thread, but he eventually gathered here so many people discussing this issue) By the way, speaking of a destroying power of gambling, I'd mention that it's destroying unless you can find ways to earn big money on it. The first and the most important thing you need to do is to find a trustworthy casino or even a whole service with casinos. If you did so, it's really unlikely that you won't win. I personally discovered Website deleted for my own. It's my hobby, no more, no big money, no big deal, just spending time with pleasure.

Poster is being totally banned for promoting the same gambling website previously deleted. Two posters have used this gambling website link. Neither has responded to my PMs to determine if they are bots.

So gone.

Where is the issue being discussed? The discussion is spammers wanting to sell dodgy stuff and digging up old threads for it.

By the way, how did you discover this site?

JuliaLambert, please understand hat we are getting bot attacks and the members are just trying to determine who is legitimate and not. Don’t take it personal.

Can we have the advert and link removed/hidden from the previous 'totally not a bot, just an asshat'?

Both in the original account and the quotes?

Leaving it only rewards the spammers.

You've been sussed out JuliaLambert. Just drop it.

You're totally right, gambling ca be very harmful for everybody, but if you gamble for another purpose than money, you will not lose anything. On the one hand, I agree with you that it destroys people lives, but in my opinion it is their fault. On the other hand, I can't understand those people that are going to casinos or playing online and hoping for big money, they lose their self control and with it, they lose their money. I am playing on link deleted aproximatively for 3 years and I never had any problems with gambling, how you can explain this?

Andrew, how about you make a post telling us a little about yourself and what you do. Something that a bot wouldn’t be able to do.

Didn't he do so exactly 7 days ago in this thread? And still edited his post after it dropped down a page, to promote a dodgy advertisement?

And now the pr1ck has done it again on the last post he made. Exactly the same dodgy carp as before. Adverts encouraging gambling - of the 'free sample' variety when online gambling is well known to be very damaging to many people, and he knows what he does is #%&*$# because he sneaks it in behind a post hoc edit. Hoping that scrutiny will pass by.
