Hi guys
Just seen this new user pop up on the listings for who is using the site at the mo -if you go to their profile it's a chuffing ad for mobile ringtones.
I dunno if this is the kind of topic that gets posted here - sorry if it isn't

Xenical

The primary side effects of the drug are gastrointestinal-related, and include steatorrhea—that is, oily, loose stools; because orlistat blocks some of the dietary fat from being absorbed, the fat is excreted unchanged in the feces—, fecal incontinence, frequent or urgent bowel movements, and flatulence. GlaxoSmithKline recommends that Alli users be cautious of the possible side effects until they "have a sense of any treatment effects".[11][12] To minimize these effects, foods with high fat content should be avoided; the manufacturer advises consumers to follow a low-fat, reduced-calorie diet. Oily stools and flatulence can be controlled by reducing the dietary fat content to somewhere in the region of 15 grams per meal.

not going to replace cocaine any time soon then.

PS - if you don't want to shit urself then you need to go on a low fat diet. If you are on a low fat diet then you've probably made taking this drug refuckingdundant. So basically, xenical is a voluntary blackmail device for fatties - "put the pie down or you'll cack yourself".

You can also check what user-agent they are using and block that. Clever spam-robots will give a fake user-agent though and pretend to be regular Firefox or IE users, so this doesn't always work.

I admit I’m guilty of thinking this way too: I’d always believed that Nozick ended up as political centrist who potentially supported moderate state interventions into many spheres of human action, based upon his famous, or infamous, essay “The Zigzag of Politics.” I have to say I still find it hard to reconcile this essay with his claims that he remained a libertarian.

I can delete posts but I only do it on news articles, otherwise I just break the links so that it's obvious it's a spammer. I can't ban or delete users as far as I know.

okay well please feel free to delete any spam posts, and post links to their user ID here so we can ban.

We're going to have see what we can do about dealing with this...

Hi all

I would like to ask for deletion of inappropriate and slanderous posts in one of the public .

However, I don’t seem to be able to find the link to send the moderators an email. Normally there is a feedback from rather than asking to directly post here. I would not like to write about it here as such post will be picked up by Google and the Criminal in question is likely to attempt to retaliate. Furthermore a link to the thread is also likely to increase the page ranking which is not what I want.

Any help is very much appreciated

Personally you need to decide if you want to respect the picket line (which it's obvious you do) and if you can. If it's a choice between crossing and losing your job then that's a very hard choice and not one that anyone should pressure you with either way.
I think what you've said about tryign to get a group of people together is a very good idea, the risk of this is that you could be fired for organising an illegal strike or something similar.
Is it possible for you to refuse to do your job on health and safety grounds during the strike. For example if there are no support staff it might be possible to close down the building using fire codes etc.

How much do we care about this issue and is there a quicker way of dealing with it if we do? Obviously it doesn't affect libcom too much if loads of profiles on here are full of spam links as long as they're not posting.

There was an interesting variety of spam, levelling up in wow, wow gold, aspen ski homes, SEO experts, acupressure, a blog for Moms and so much more :)

Is it worth the effort of deleting them or not?
