We should be flattered that they at least consider this board to be worth spamming :D

I've banned that particular spammer three times already so how he manages to re-register is beyond me? There are extra precautions I can take but these would also deter genuine posters who wish to register for the frst time.

I'm unable to login to the Telegraph's board at all at present.

They let me in, but who'd want to go on a board that does that?
Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.

I can login using Internet Explorer but the pages are so slow to load it's hardly worth the effort. The fact remains that the board is getting worse all the time and every attempt to patch one problem simply results in an even worse problem. It's only a question of time before it disappears altogether.
'Boiling Frog' syndrome comes to mind.

Interesting that Trinity-Mirror has not yet attempted to upgrade the icLiverpool board from Version 2 to Version 3? If they tried and it failed they would no-doubt have a full-scale soccer riot on their hands.

Not that this board doesn't have its problems. I'm aware that Google is sometimes less than prompt in sending email notifications. I did pay AOL for the use of a 'proper' email server but for some reason that didn't work at all? Have also experimented with a new front-page, that is the page which visitors see when they first visit this site. Am not 100% happy with it yet so have not activated the feature.

Just read a little bit on that Boiling Frog Syndrome.... and I think I must have that also, Daniel Quinn version of events , nearly made me pass myself with laughter. :rolling: :rolling:

If you put a frog in boiling water it would be dead so it could not possibly jump out, some people are outright bonkers ;) :lol:

The top right-hand corner of this page should tell you if you if you've received any message although I seldom check myself. I can never tell if one has been sent by me or not as it seems to hang in the outgoing tray forever? It's probably best to notify someone in the forum that you have sent them a PM or received one from them.
