[22:20] <ScreensaverGuy> Spammers eat up a lot of AOL's bandwidth. [22:20] <Vendzilla> Just how are they going to go after spammers when they can get an offshore hosting account [22:20] <kaitech> spammers suck [22:20] <kaitech> they will find a loop hole around it [22:21] <ScreensaverGuy> it will be a barrier to entry for new spammers but the veterans will find a way around it. [22:21] <BTA> they always do [22:21] <Vendzilla> there's always a better code out there [22:21] <BTA> as long as there's money to be made, people will wrk their ass off to do it [22:21] <kaitech> i agree there [22:21] *** Quits: Nubian (Hottie@69.156.5.18) (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [22:22] <Vendzilla> nubian is having problems?

[22:22] <princess> he's not feeling too well so he's leaving [22:22] <Vendzilla> Hope he feels better [22:22] <princess> I don't think they're controling their programs to well [22:22] <ScreensaverGuy> Sponsors turning a blind eye to it? [22:22] <kaitech> they are just as bad if not worse [22:22] <kaitech> sound like a double standard [22:23] <MrThumbs> double standards are usually involved when it comes to money ;) [22:23] <ScreensaverGuy> They know it is happening. Thjey are making big bucks off of it. [22:23] <Vendzilla> I'm getting closer to getting my paysite up and won't allow spam at all, and will check for it [22:23] <kaitech> look at martha [22:23] <kaitech> lmao [22:23] *** Joins: WeirdHarold (~weirdharo@cs2416294-13.jam.rr.com) [22:23] <kaitech> hey harold [22:23] <princess> I think most times some of the sponsors spam their own programs [22:23] <ScreensaverGuy> for $30k she lost millions. [22:23] * princess hugs WeirdHarold [22:24] * ScreensaverGuy agrees with Marsha [22:24] <Vendzilla> and still losing [22:24] <kaitech> she is so dumb [22:24] <WeirdHarold> Hey Sweetie and Hugs back Hi ya kaitech [22:24] <ScreensaverGuy> about the sponsors not the hugging WeirdHarold. [22:24] <BTA> lol [22:24] <ScreensaverGuy> I'll gladly shake his hand though! :) [22:24] <Vendzilla> that's a cute picture [22:25] <WeirdHarold> LMAO [22:25] <princess> I work for a company that I know spams. cause I get the emails about it lol [22:25] <ScreensaverGuy> picture? I must have missed it. [22:25] <Vendzilla> hugging harold [22:25] <ScreensaverGuy> Shame on Rated Hot for Spamming! LOL Just kidding babe! [22:25] <princess> lol [22:25] <WeirdHarold> Hey I am not opposed to hugs [22:25] <princess> I said I work for.. not own [22:25] <kaitech> there really should be a line drawn [22:26] <princess> remember when people thought that double opt in would solve most of the spam problems? [22:26] <Vendzilla> we just need better spam filters, then if there not making money because the emails aren't going thru.... [22:26] <kaitech> but i think the govern is a joke for having the no spam registry what idiots [22:26] <MrThumbs> with all those free email programs people get spammed with opt-in opportunties.. thats pretty ironic.. [22:26] <ScreensaverGuy> double opt in just makes the names/email addresses more valuable! [22:27] <BTA> an address is valuable, but if you know it's active becaus eof double opt-in, it's a winner [22:27] <WeirdHarold> Oh let me interject a problem I incountered today as like most I have several hotmail accts and today I started getting returned mail I didn't send out... I check and it is not coming from my machine... any guesses [22:28] <princess> true MrThumbs [22:28] <Vendzilla> same here with yahoo [22:28] <kaitech> one of the stupid trojans [22:28] <ScreensaverGuy> Your address is being masked in the from field. [22:28] <kaitech> where is a good question [22:28] <kaitech> some of the isp are not doing that great of a job catching it [22:29] <princess> I think with the amount of complaints that ISP's get about spam they're too covered up to do too much [22:29] <kaitech> i still get hit with it on a daily basis [22:29] <princess> Does anyone use the programs online like spam arrest? etc? [22:29] <ScreensaverGuy> I get stuff like that in my Yahoo account from time to time. There is a place where you can report it and let Yahoo know it wasn't you that sent it out. [22:30] <Vendzilla> I get about 400 a day on one yahoo account [22:30] <princess> I use it on one account that I normally get like 500 emails a day on and it's helped quite a bit [22:30] <BTA> I don't get spammed at all really. maybe once or twice a fortnight [22:30] <Vendzilla> I need to start useing that [22:30] * princess adds BOB to her list ;) [22:30] <BTA> damn [22:30] <princess> hehe [22:30] <Vendzilla> lol [22:30] <princess> Vendzilla it's really good and doesn't cost tons [22:31] <Vendzilla> what's that? [22:31] <ScreensaverGuy> I think they have a free version which adds a tag line [22:31] <princess> http://www.spamarrest.com/ [22:31] <princess> free 30 day trial [22:31] <princess> and you can set up a list of those that you do allow to send you mail and those you don't [22:31] <ScreensaverGuy> which one does Dave (liftnw8) use? [22:31] <princess> no idea [22:32] <Vendzilla> there suppose to be adding a spam filter to my website account, the yahoo account works pretty good [22:32] <WeirdHarold> he was using Spamarrest [22:32] <ScreensaverGuy> I'll have to check my email. [22:32] <MrThumbs> yeah spamarrest works great.. only problem is some preople with less computer skills have trouble getting through the confirmation part [22:32] <ScreensaverGuy> LOL! [22:32] <princess> even in this industry MrThumbs? [22:33] <MrThumbs> for personal use its great but if you deal with business leads from email [22:33] <MrThumbs> youll lose some percentages [22:33] <princess> I only use it on my personal account with my isp. thats the one that gets tons of spam [22:33] <princess> I hear people that complain about icq spam. that's something I hardly ever get. [22:33] <MrThumbs> but spamarrest is the best solution for far.. and mailwasher as a front-end to your mailapp wipes out 90% [22:33] <princess> I've never heard of mailwasher before [22:33] <kaitech> any one use eudora? [22:34] <kaitech> 6.0 [22:34] <ScreensaverGuy> Question: With spam being such a concern... how do you email people you are interested in doing business with? [22:34] <princess> I use pegasus for business stuff [22:34] <ScreensaverGuy> Yes on Eudora [22:34] <Vendzilla> I think icq has only sent maybe 3 spams to me, but I don't use Icq much [22:34] <MrThumbs> thats a good point SG.. you cant mail webmasters avbout business proposals because they consider it as spam [22:34] <princess> good question ScreensaverGuy.. seems most would get lost [22:34] <kaitech> eudora has a junk feature built into it and that works pretty well for me [22:34] <WeirdHarold> On ICQ that is why I stay invisible all the time [22:34] <Vendzilla> subject line!!! [22:34] <princess> subject line? [22:35] <princess> seems like no matter what you put for a subject someone has a filter for it [22:35] <ScreensaverGuy> For instance... I email models about doing screen savers for them. [22:35] <Vendzilla> when I email some one, I always put Vendzilla in the subject line, so it won't get deleted [22:35] <princess> wow never thought about that [22:36] <ScreensaverGuy> But what if they don't know who Vendzilla is? [22:36] <ScreensaverGuy> wait scatch that... [22:36] <ScreensaverGuy> everyone knows Vendzilla! :) [22:36] <Vendzilla> what if you don't know what a Vendzilla is? [22:36] *** Quits: undermyspell (Hottie@207.254.235.76) (Quit: Later Gators) [22:36] <princess> it at least grabs their attention [22:36] <Vendzilla> exactly [22:37] <MrThumbs> haha [22:37] <kaitech> i just put jesus wants to talk with you [22:37] <kaitech> lmao [22:37] <MrThumbs> hahaha [22:37] <princess> lol [22:37] <princess> must be nice having the name jesus [22:37] <MrThumbs> i put "picture of princess" in the subject and im sure people read it [22:37] <Vendzilla> I would delete that [22:37] <kaitech> not really [22:37] <princess> OMG! they'd delete it for sure MrThumbs [22:37] <MrThumbs> no way haha [22:37] <princess> are you kidding kaitech, when Jesus talks everyone listens ;) [22:38] <kaitech> it's to common [22:38] <princess> too common?

I'd have to read it just to see what it says [22:38] <kaitech> here in the east coast oh yeah [22:38] <Vendzilla> In LA, there's alot of Jesus's [22:39] <Vendzilla> My first and last name are not common [22:39] <Vendzilla> I've never met anybody with my last name [22:39] <kaitech> i stop spam straight at the server [22:40] <princess> what program do you use at the server? [22:40] <kaitech> and what ever get thru i stop it with eudora [22:40] <kaitech> spamassasin [22:40] <BTA> I don't give out my email to sites I'm pretty sure will spam me [22:40] <kaitech> aon one [22:40] <kaitech> and ensim has a filter system built in [22:40] <ScreensaverGuy> Many companies block all mail from a Yahoo address. [22:40] <Vendzilla> like AOL [22:41] <kaitech> you know yes but then you run risk of block a real email [22:41] <kaitech> a valid one i mean [22:41] <ScreensaverGuy> Which makes me laugh at the job I applied to through HotJobs (Yahoo company) that got bounced back to me. [22:41] <WeirdHarold> What pisses me is the spam I get in my acct I use just to sign up with sponsers... and get bull shit spam in it [22:41] <princess> yep.. sponsors can be the worst at it [22:41] <princess> sadly ;( [22:42] <princess> my ISP has started blocking almost all my emails. and since I'm not all the familar with setting up fliters I never get emails lol [22:42] <ScreensaverGuy> I hate all the porn spam that I get at my business email address! [22:42] <WeirdHarold> But they are spamming with surfer shit! [22:42] <kaitech> what is even worse then all of that is companies that say they dont rent the mailing list but do so you are gettin emails about different types of crap [22:43] <princess> I think they use all their emails and spam all their sites and programs. and even share. something like. I'll give you my list if you give me yours [22:43] <ScreensaverGuy> One of my sponsors spams me all the time!

[22:59] <princess> terr has been idle 48mins 34secs [22:59] <WeirdHarold> I have found the best trick is just to stay invisible and allow those you want on your list see you in the invisible mode [22:59] <ScreensaverGuy> Most be shooting content.. [22:59] <princess> that's another good way WeirdHarold ;) [23:00] <ScreensaverGuy> I always thought invisible should keep you invisible to your list!

[23:14] <WeirdHarold> Well fun is the important part... but catching sure helps on the first trip [23:14] <ScreensaverGuy> Just lost a lot of warms... I think pearch were eating up our bait and our hooks were a little too big [23:14] <princess> I love to fish [23:15] <princess> I'm such a tom boy lol [23:15] <ScreensaverGuy> had lots of bites but nothing hooked. [23:15] <WeirdHarold> Well that is better thatn just watching a cork [23:16] <ScreensaverGuy> We'll be going back tomorrow, hopefully with better luck. [23:16] <princess> but the biggest fish I ever caught was a 2 lb bass [23:16] <princess> lol [23:16] <WeirdHarold> I am about ready to go after a good mess of Crappie myself [23:16] <princess> isn't he in school Robert? [23:16] <ScreensaverGuy> Spring break here. [23:16] <princess> oh wow [23:17] <princess> I need to plan fun things with my kids for spring break [23:17] <WeirdHarold> speaking of spring break that explains a commerical I saw last night got to make a post about it [23:18] <ScreensaverGuy> can't wait to read it. [23:18] <princess> you know.. I've noticed that most webmasters don't like the serious topic threads... wonder why that is [23:19] <ScreensaverGuy> yeah... every time I post something serious I kill the thread! LOL! [23:19] <ScreensaverGuy> It seems only Harold likes my posts! [23:19] <princess> cough drop posted a serious one and it went no where [23:20] <ScreensaverGuy> I missed it. I'll dig for it and bump it up. [23:20] <MrThumbs> ive noticed webmasters dont like my topcis.. i wonder why that is! [23:20] <ScreensaverGuy> Sometimes serious posts take more time to respond. More to say to get a point accross. [23:21] <WeirdHarold> That is my problem with Rated hot... I feel to many don't like my serious posts [23:21] <WeirdHarold> sometimes I feel very unpopular [23:22] <ScreensaverGuy> You kidding... I love your posts! [23:22] <MrThumbs> i hear ya WH! [23:22] <princess> I love serious post [23:22] <ScreensaverGuy> I keep thinking we should get together sometime and have a real conversation. [23:22] <princess> makes me have to really think. something I enjoy doing [23:22] <WeirdHarold> I think I would like that [23:23] <princess> so don't feel that way.. [23:23] <princess> Cough drop suggested a thread of the week. on something thought provoking. [23:23] <ScreensaverGuy> Me too. I have some good conspiracy theories I'd like to discuss with you! *grin* [23:24] <WeirdHarold> LOL don't get me started [23:24] <ScreensaverGuy> What was it? Do you remember Marsha? [23:24] <princess> MrThumbs I don't see how you do it over at GFY all the time. [23:24] <princess> would drive me inane [23:24] <princess> what was what babe? [23:25] <ScreensaverGuy> What was Cough Drops thread suggestion? Or was it a "topic of the week" in general? [23:25] <princess> in general [23:25] <princess> could be politics.. medical.. what's going on in the world. anything [23:26] <ScreensaverGuy> Is there a way to track the number of characters posted? As there is with number of posts? [23:26] <WeirdHarold> Dont get me wrong I love to just play around myself but when I have something I really want heard I wish I got more response [23:26] <ScreensaverGuy> It would be interesting to see what everyones average character count per post is. [23:27] <princess> i'm with you WeirdHarold [23:27] <ScreensaverGuy> Agree. I had typed a response to someones question that was nearly two pages long and then only got one reply back on it. [23:27] <ScreensaverGuy> not even a thank you for the suggestions/tips. [23:28] <MrThumbs> i think on the internet its always hard to get feedback on serious issues.. because people dont [23:28] <MrThumbs> feel theyll get credit for it when answering [23:28] <ScreensaverGuy> agree. [23:28] <WeirdHarold> Your post often have quality SSG I think that scares some people afraid they will show how little they know [23:28] <MrThumbs> in a group of frieds.. people that respect each other: something the ratedhot community will have during the time to come, that wont be an issue [23:28] <ScreensaverGuy> Thanks WH! [23:29] <princess> that's one thing about me. I'm not afriad to show if I don't know something. I welcome the knowledge to learn it [23:29] <MrThumbs> exactly.. not getting an answer to a question could also mean your on a higher level and people simple dont know the answer or are affraid to give the wrong answer [23:29] <princess> I don't feel like I'm doing a good job if I don't at least learn something new daily. [23:29] <WeirdHarold> SSG I am still waiting on those bookmarks on conspiersy [23:30] <princess> good point MrThumbs.. now if I could just figure out how to get around that. or get people over it [23:30] <princess> brb ladies room [23:30] <ScreensaverGuy> I think they are on my other computer because I can't find them now. [23:30] <MrThumbs> i think gfy contributed a lot to the harsh state of mind of many webmasters on the boards. [23:31] <ScreensaverGuy> Good point MrThumbs. [23:31] <WeirdHarold> I wish I could tolerate GFY a little more [23:32] <ScreensaverGuy> Yeah... I read through GFY every now and then but rarely post. [23:32] <WeirdHarold> Hell I have noticed that many of my post on RH are hardly looked at.... kinda hurts my feelings [23:33] <princess> I've been there since jan of 2001 I think and have only 740 post [23:33] <WeirdHarold> Ive been there about that long and bet I don't have 6 posts [23:34] <ScreensaverGuy> I owe you a reply btw.... on the conspiracy theories thread. [23:34] <MrThumbs> im at 7k now.. is that bad? [23:34] <princess> lol [23:34] <ScreensaverGuy> I had started it but never got to finish it. [23:34] <princess> just means you have more to say there then we do MrThumbs ;) [23:34] <WeirdHarold> Not if you enjoy it [23:34] <WeirdHarold> and can deal with assholes better [23:35] <ScreensaverGuy> About the "knowledge is a privledge not a right". I thought of WH when I wrote that! [23:35] <MrThumbs> haha.. [23:36] <WeirdHarold> Yeah looked like a trap to me [23:36] <WeirdHarold> but you know me I just could not help myself [23:37] <ScreensaverGuy> I figured you would be the only one that would catch what i was trying to say... that those without the knowledge are all enslaved to an extent. [23:38] <princess> ok I have to go get started on reds mail [23:38] <princess> or I'll never get that done [23:38] <WeirdHarold> LOL poor baby [23:38] * ScreensaverGuy hugs marsha [23:38] * princess *HUGS*! you all [23:38] <princess> and trust me I need my beauty sleep [23:38] * WeirdHarold hugs Marsh back [23:38] * WeirdHarold cops a feel while at it [23:39] <ScreensaverGuy> LOL!!! [23:39] <princess> woohoo! [23:39] <princess> stop! I might start to like it hehe [23:39] <WeirdHarold> I know you would like it!!!! [23:40] <princess> *wink* [23:40] <princess> Okies..
