Spam and Abuse Watch

AFAIK, it takes 5 kicks, but they have to be the same type: 5 Spam, or 5 Abuse - but 3 Spam and 4 Abuse won't drop a member.

The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger.

English doesn't borrow from other languages.
English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

I really don't understand the logic of going to a site run by and for people who make their money writing software and then asking for a pirate copy of someone elses! D'Oh! | :doh:

Well, CP rather makes their money from Partners and Ads, but I guess they had write code to achieve that Laugh | :laugh:

People becoming wiser in order to notice the stupid things they did back in the young days. This doesn't mean that they really stop doing those things. Wise people still do stupid things, only on purpose.

I don't think Chris and The Hamsters would like to think of themselves as Ad Men... Laugh | :laugh:

Of course not Laugh | :laugh:

But honestly, the only reason they can keep the site up and running without charging the users is the fact that they get Ad & Partner money $Shucks | :-\$

After all I think that AdBlock must only be used on pages where you can't view the content because it is covered with Ads. I'm perfectly fine with pages showing their ads in a decent manner, and I don't need AdBlock since I rarely even visit pages which cover their content with Ads Sniff | :^)

I even randomly click on the Ads on CP, just because I know about how CP works Unsure | :~

.

One thing just came to my mind: Is it possible to lock out AdBlock users from CP?

It says that it is easy to implement an AdBlock-Block-Blocker Laugh | :laugh:

Most likely is it's a piece of homework, and they are both at the same school / college.
I can't see anything there that would be abuse - there doesn't seem to be a common factor in the answers (and I'm pretty sure that Abhinav is not me! Laugh | :laugh:

If they are at same school then how the question can have 100% same content? If two student types the question then at least some thing should be different.

They are word to word similar.

I am with Griff on this matter - Even though the questions are word to word the same it is still possible that one has just copied the question text from the other guy.
