Question 19 Posting underage child porno.

it is an OFFENCE to do that. read this post.
http://www.sammyboyforum.com/sammybo...ml#post1432867

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.
 

It may be due to certain reasons....in my opinion if u cant see the pictures, it means:

1) there are no pictures
2) the link is already dead
3) you have no access to it due to membership reasons

most likely your problem can be answered using (3).

Go to: http://www.sammyboy.com/originalpixrules.html an perhaps u will understand more...

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.

to see your user comment. Do this.

Step 1 Click on the Usercp
Step 2 All record are there.

Green button indicates "Approval"

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.
 

wowlauer..Ahpek DNAT... here hor.. really need to spoonfeed wan...

ok let me explain more......what i mean is.. if you use imageshack and related hosting services ( e.g tinypic.com)... there is a clause under the term of services which says the following is not allowed..

"Files that are pedophiliac. This includes, but is not limited to, persons under the age of 18 either posing as "models" or taking part in otherwise sexually implicit or explicit situations." and your IP is logged... All images are reviewed. No nudity or offensive images
(xx.xxx.xx.xxx logged) that number is your IP address. and u can be tracked..

Dont believe just goto http://www.tinypic.com/ and see if you see the message there or not with your IP captured..

to get around with it... you either use Anonymous Surfing (e.g)http://www.anonymization.net/

or better still....... chose a website which allows u to host adult contents material....

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.
 

Bro Big Sexy,

First of all thanks for this thread that allows me to post questions.

I don' think I remember reading in any thread that if choose a nick like Anti_Vice will kana zap. Hahahaha.

I think two samsters take offence to my nick bcos they did not leave anything behind leh. I cannot think of a name so I thought it was funny to have a nick like Anti_Vice. Hahahaha

Ok getting long-winded liao. My question is with my nick like Anti_Vice, when I pm samsters for contact, will I get it ? Hahaha

Please don't zap me if I ask in the wrong thread.

Thanks

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.
 

people zap for a reason... with your nick.. getting zap is immientent.. it is just human nature... do remember that there are OKTs in this forum..

btw i see you have 14 points.. and have check your posts too.. don;t think u deserved the points though to be honest..

as for whether u can get contacts from PMing samsters.. i don;t know.. but u can narrow it down to 3 possibilities.. being ignore , or kenna zap again and the other is of course u get the contact..

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.
 

Why don't you visit your friendly optician....

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.
 

so long as your system is connected to a network... u can be tracked down.. they could also block you from surfing certain website if they want...preventing them from checking on you??????

yes it could be done if you know how to remove those system/network policies/security from your PC... but you would have disabled the network and would be found out sooner or later... you really shouldnt be surfing the net when you are working..



What "stuff" are you referring to? those in the private section??? to download "stuff" in the private section, please read the membership requirements member.. for all other "stuff" .. do what boss has told you to do.. :D

Re: Newbies HELPLINE.. Newbies Please post your question here.
 

Big Sam once said before that we cannot zap and put other people nick..will lead to moderation..also you got zap more than 10 times in a day.. you might want to Pm the boss and ask him to look into the matter..
