Otherworlds board members-only now

[wiseheart]

After having removed manually more than 100 spam messages (which cost me two hours from my only half-free afternoon this week!) I regretfully reset all forums on the Otherworlds board to members-only. I'm sorry to pevent guests from participating, but my barely existent free time is too precious to me than to waste it on idiot spammers.

Another medium that should have served communication and discussion shut down because of idiots. Idiots subjugate our world on every level.

Somehow, it's depressing.

Not much's really going on these days, except me posting my own stuff. But it was really annoying, time-consumming and maddening. Such people should be hung upside down above a bonfire. *tries to quench bloodthirsty mood*

If one steals my money, it's bad enough, but money can be replaced - well, sometimes. But if they steal my time, it's an irreversible loss, and it's something I don't have aplenty to begin with. (Not that the same wouldn't be true for money, sadly...)

I totally agree, hon, believe me! You have no idea just how much I agree! Actual free time that a person can use an true leisure in this day and age is worth the count of its nanoseconds being weighed in gold!

And it's funny, but the older you get, the less free time you seem to have - and the more you learn to value what little you do have.

A belated, but heartfelt "Hear! Hear!" I get really annoyed with the electronic spam I must delete and with the paper junkmail I must take to the office to shred because it has my damned personal info on it. Grrr....

The Otherworlds board has been hit hard lately. I had to delete and ban two idiots within the week (or more likely the same idiot under different names, using different PCs) who posted the exactly same disgusting porn pictures.

It's particularly annoying, as it's a PG-13 limited board, and it could be deleted because of the idiotic spammers.
