Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

                  I got exactly the same one. Pretty hard to turn down an offer of nude pictures, ha, ha.

                    Becky153 just got removed and the wonderful spammer system should have also dropped all PM's "she" sent. Thanks for the report guys.

                    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                    • Jacqueline144 is getting in on the act as well. Haven't looked at the full message but the text is identical. Bit of a scrubber anyway...

                        And her 11 PM's are now gone too...

                        New users are now limited to only 1 PM per 30 minutes until they are promoted to newbies (which means they have to post first which means we hopefully catch them) or really slow them down.

                        • Why are there images of naked kids and paedophelic crap in the image gallery. What kind of sick person would post that crap?!

                            I'll go and have a look, but if you seen anything that shouldn't be there shoot me a PM with a link and I'll look after it.
                            EDIT: I feel more than a little sick at that, that **** is ****ed up. Thanks for reporting it, I'll have to keep a closer eye on there.

                            In practice, that is a stand alone image hosting system to let you upload images and share them anywhere on the internet.

                            Anything posted to this forum is automagically embedded into the post so we don't lose the history if the original image link dies (I'm looking at you Photobucket). It's only out of courtesy I haven't regularly dumped all contents of the image hosting in case people are using them else where, but if we are getting dodgy stuff in there I might have to do just that anyway every week.

                            • Would be good if we could track down who did it and get authorities involved to bring down the sickos who took the photos. As a father of 2 kids seeing that made me feel sick and extremely angry.

                                You and me both.

                                It was a random IP address (which has been banned, although I suspect these people use proxies and bounce about anyway) which was listed as in Estonia. In the heat of my disgust I deleted the images, but then thought maybe I should have taken a screen shot to allow me to report it somewhere(??), sadly I didn't so don't have any evidence.

                                Now that I have considered things I have done a little more research to allow me to both keep a record while also removing it from the public internet should there be a next time.
