I've been noticing a lot of strange things posted in the wrong places on the forum.

Some look very much like spam, advertising job "possibilities".

This forum is here to help people with their employment issues, not bore them to death with useless spam.

I don't want to read the same thing several times on every thread, attached to other posts, and quite irrelevant to them.

That's not what we're here for.

Spam will be deleted.


New posters note:

If you've got a real job vacancy,not spam, it goes in the Job Vacancy thread.

Comments from users, please.

Pauloz: THANKS!!!


It drives me insane. I am on here, I like to read what other people are writing and offer advice or just talk. I'm sure everyone can tell that by my post number. But I have noticed that too and it frustrates me, there is a section for job postings, for advertising, etc.

Please keep that kind of stuff there!!!!All the useful things on here, all the people who are posting a question because they are needing help, get hurt by spam.

SPAM SHOULD BE AND WILL BE DELETED!!!!!

What gets to me is that the people who are posting this garbage could be using the site to get real jobs for themselves.

Cut and paste really doesn't pay too well, and in addition to annoying other people, they get kicked off a site which can help them. That is dumb.

I like helping people, but you can't get too keen on helping those who are hurting the people you're trying to help.

Suggestion to cut and paste addicts:

Forget that crap,

Go looking for some real work,

Ask us some questions,

Get out of that scene before you get yourselves into trouble.

Yeah, I have always wondered about that paste-n-earn stuff, it always is advertised everywhere but every time I try to follow it up they wanted me to pay money or something like that, which just sounded like a scam to me. Or it wasn't as good as they made it out to be. I have been able to make money on the side in more enjoyable ways, such as writing/editing and I am a painter, so I make signs for people. What I suggest is for people to look at themselves, and most often they will find that they are able to utilise one of their side talents in a way to make some extra money if not be able to turn it into a profitable business for themselves. But there are many other options than filling our forum here full of junk!
