There have been recent instances of people creating new accounts and then spamming every thread in the job-related forum with gay porn. Then when teachers go to school Monday morning and they open those threads, it's quite possible for trouble to result.
It's possible that when someone was reporting an affected thread, they inadvertently flagged your post instead of the offensive one. I wouldn't worry too much. It's pretty evident that you aren't the porn spammer. |

I think that if they believed it, you would have been banned already.
Anyone know how the progress with Interpol is going against Kevin? Last I read, they were doing some final paperwork before picking him up. |

Just a warning--
The infamous porn poster is back. S/he posted some non porn but I suspect it's the same person since the file was also called "dainbae." |

Yeah, I can confirm that I received such an email too. I was shocked to say the least when I read that my account would be suspended when I've never posted a picture. Hopefully it does get cleared up. |

I can't believe the US authorities haven't arrested him for abusing his own children. His wife is probably in on the pedophilia and covers for him by lying and threatening their children with more rape. |

Yeah, during one of your threads, some jerk posted a "KKK WANTS YOU" image. Then he or she posted an image that was really disgusting in nature, which was pornographic...It was surely posted by someone!!!
Dave Sperling and his crew would know who had done this--I'm not saying it's you, but let's hope it's not, and I really hope it isn't....there's no room for that crap here, especially when it's that blatant and way off topic.... |

Some of you have received this E-mail last night saying:

I received an E-mail from a user who was concerned about his account. (I'm only an ex-Mod, here.) IMHO, this is probably a joke put on by "Big Bill". He's just a bored trucker in the deep South of the USA with too much spare time. He gets drunk in hotel rooms and starts posting crapolla online. You know: give a guy a bottle and a computer and he'll probably use it!
Ignore it. If you wrote back and gave him the password to your account, then you better change it straightaway. If I'm wrong, then Moderators~ please, correct me.
Thanks. |

The email came from an @yahoo.com address. Wouldn't a moderator of this site e-mail such messages from an @eslcafe.com address? |

Mods do NOT send e-mails to users. They use PMs and it stays within the forum.
The e-mail being referred to was a hoax. Ignore it.

Are you serious? I sure hope that's true. If the guy does have any assets Dave should be able to sue him for what he's worth. |
