Inappropriate links in posts


Recommended Posts

See the little red triangle at the top of the post, near the post number?

 

Hopefully, by inappropriate you mean p*rn, extremely violent, selling something, etc.... I have an idea of a post many could find offensive, but chose not to take it that way.

 

ETA: disclaimers would be nice on things that *could* be offensive to people though...adult content, preachy, whatever....

Now girls it wasn't "Cabana Boy" or whatever that was. It was about five links peppered into a religious sounding post. The links were to an oriental escort service in NYC and when I clicked the triangle as one of you directed, it disappeared within seconds. The person had at least 6 similar posts prior to today's. You never would have known if you didn't click the link. The post was so oddly religious and had nothing to do with the thread, out of curiosity (the kind that killed the cat) I clicked on the link and blinked and clicked another one of the links and gasped and clicked another and posted this thread. Does this happen often? :eek::eek::eek::eek:

No, it doesn't happen too often, but I've seen that kind of thing here before. Thanks for reporting it!!

I think it happens more often than most people know about. I was up very early once and checked on a thread I had replied to and it contained a post that was a copy of someone else's but had some awful stuff inserted in the middle as well as a link. But with it being sandwiched within a normal sounding post I almost didn't catch it. Reported it right away and it was gone quickly, probably before the "rush hour."
