Need your EXPERT OPINION quickly please

[casse2go]

Hey guys, Please tell me if this is my problem or the site's.

I am voting in a contest where there are 100 entrants. To vote you must click on a "+" sign by the pic of the person. So, if everyone's pic has that sign except the person you're voting for is it like your comp or the site. Mind you the pic has been with the sign most of the morning and the site is constantly saying "Can't Find the Web Address".

Also, When you do get in the same page displays the same numbers over and over even when I clear my cookies.

Can the site be manipulating the votes in favor of one person, or is there likely a problem with my machine.  Others of us voting for this one person are also going through this problem.


Thanks guys.

[fffreak]

I don't exactly know what may be going on, we're going to need more information...
Number 1...to start getting an idea of what may be going on, what's the website, that you're speaking of, what's the web address?

[casse2go]

http://tweeterwall.mallplace.com/tw/worldwide/elite-mr-twitter-universe

Please tell me, in the block @davidarchie, is there a plus sign visible in the lower right corner? This sign is not visible to a ton of voters.

The site is mallplace.com

[Griff]

Looks like someone doesn't have enough bandwidth!

The site looks like it is struggling to stay up. It's taking forever to load, so elements (pics, urls) are timing out and failing to load. This is a problem with the site and not you.

[kpac]

Please tell me, in the block @davidarchie, is there a plus sign visible in the lower right corner? This sign is not visible to a ton of voters.

Yes, and I just clicked it.

[casse2go]

Thank you. Now say they don't have enough band width...if they were to keep a huge amount of ppl from voting could that compensate and give them, um whatever...more ability to serve others? Could that be why @davidarchie has had no ability to vote most of the day, and why the site is saying the web address is unknown?

[Karnac]

Archies' photo is in GIF format......all the rest are JPEGS....right click in photo>properties

If that makes any difference.........he is the only one without a +

[casse2go]

Karnac, most of the guys here know I'm not comp savvy. What are you saying? The photo needs to be re[laced.

[Karnac]

I don't know casse...it was just an observation I made.....maybe a photo uploaded as a JPEG would solve the problem...I don't know for sure....perhaps someone else can chime in as to whether this is the cause.

[casse2go]

Yes, Please! Thank you Karnac. And I did check, of course you're right.

[Karnac]

Strange enough, I clicked on his picture, went to his page,went back to the main page and now there's a + sign by his photo....lol

[casse2go]

LOL... mean Karnac, you just have to have been a part of this madness for the past week or so especially the Elite contest which began Wednesday when all of us even the ppl at Mallplace were pulling their hair out.

When I first addressed a problem with them their response was we had no idea this thing would be so huge. I could only respond, but you had David Archuleta in it, and don't you know about his fanbase.

We're trying everything so I'll try this as well. TY...[

so it's click his pic, then let that open, which takes forever, everything takes forever, then go back to the page with the pics and the "+" sign may be there. Okay roger wilco./b]

[casse2go]

Guys, I placed this thread in my clubs messages and now a question to you:

Sometimes this counter will change and we can see the number turn over immediately however, other times it doesn't so we don't. So when we click that "+" and the number doesn't change does the vote get registered when we click and we don't need to see the change? By the way, if you vote the picture always darkens, then goes back to color, which I hope means the vote has been sent.

This ii more about when a vote is actually registered. TYG

[Karnac]

I think the darkening of the photo indicates a vote has been entered/registered.....

[casse2go]

I hope so Karnac, because we have gotta move some votes. Thanks guys I'll post back if more replies come in Any idea is appreciated.

Oh oh...Um, do you guys remember the movie "Groundhog Day"? Well, maybe you can tell me why when I click on this site which is in my favorites I have gotten the same page four times now today? These Even if the numbers changes when I vote. the next 20 minutes the same page will come up again with the same numbers. Is this also because of the band width of Mallplace? It's like I'm just wasting my time to see the same numbers all the time.

Is there suppose to be a submit button byt that address window?

[evilfantasy]

Just press Enter on your keyboard.

[casse2go]

Thank you, I keep forgetting about the enter key.  Here is the result:

http://www.computerhope.com/cgi-bin/isitup.cgi

I am currently getting the web site not responding msg. This thing has until 11am GMT and I just can't wait. It is the most ill-conceived thing I have ever been a part of on-line.

[evilfantasy]

No offense but his 15 minutes were up long ago....

[casse2go]

Now you see ef, I knew you were being too good to be true. I am in such a foul mood about thi contest that for me to reply would shut this place down.

I will say this...tell it to his label and his management.

[evilfantasy]

You've got to be able to take the good with the bad...

If I wasn't a nice guy or I would have you "shutting this place down."

Anyway, it's not just you. Nobody is voting because the site is down.

HTTP status: 500 - Error

Checking root domain (tweeterwall.mallplace.com)...
No luck. Server or web host is not up.

[casse2go]

Someone, please tell me what this means:

WEB SITE NOT RESPONDING

Is it not responding to my ISP and if so, what can I do other than clean cookies? And why can some ppl use the site and others can't when this window opens?
Thanks

[evilfantasy]

Trust me. It's down for everyone and not just you. If someone says they are getting in they are either lying or have a magic trick.

Here is another tool that says the same thing that the CH Is it up? tool says.

http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/

It's not just you! http://tweeterwall.mallplace.com looks down from here.

[casse2go]

What are you saying? I'm telling you people have been voting while I and others are getting this msg and have been during this entire process. That's why I asked if the site could be keeping certain isps from voting either by not displaying the "+" sign or causing the WSNR sign to appear. I'm not a comp wiz, that's why I'm asking you guys.

[patio]

Casse you may want to take EF's word on this ...
That page never loaded for me today on numerous attempts...

[casse2go]

Patio, you know how I value your opinion as well as all of the guys here, even ef. But we (my fan club) have been emailing for the past four days about this thing. Some of us are getting this msg while others are voting and seeing the numbers change with their votes. The numbers on the counters are constantly going up so the site is responding.

Right now some ppl are voting while other are getting msges saying the web site... or the address is wrong. Trust me on that. Are you saying the site is tricking us all into thinking we're voting when we're not?

You can't get in but ppl are in there voting.

Please answer my previous question about the "Web Site Not Responding...

[evilfantasy]

I even tried with a few different proxies. It's not a working site at this time.

Googling around a little I wouldn't be in a big hurry to get there anyway. Looks like a spammer/spyware haven...

[casse2go]

Do you guys have anything that can determine if this site is okay to enter?

https://tweeterwall.mallplace.com/tw/worldwide/elite-mr-twitter-universe

[patio]

I cannot and haven't been able to connect to the site...
Hope this helps.

[evilfantasy]

Thats the same site. The whole web site is not working.

This is the main site https://mallplace.com

The tweeterwall address is just a page, or maybe a subdomain within that web site. If you can't get to the main site (domain) then you can't get to the rest of it either.

Edit: Thats a very crude description of a website but I think it is accurate enough for how this one works. 

[casse2go]

Okay, ef, this site is open to voters from around the world and right now the thousands of tweeters have been limited to 100 and so millions of ppl are trying to vote. The hours are dwindling down to 7 in the morn.

So maybe that spam to you.

Patio, thanks for trying to help I'll just go back  and keep trying, It''' let me in sooner or later. And after tomorrow Mallplace will wish they had never done this contest. Don't start with me EF...Please

Readng the added msg from ef... do you want some of the ppl who are voting to contact you. I'm telling you they are voting in there. they say it is slow and the numbers change slowly but they do get the "+" sign and they do see the number change. I'm just not able to help David. SHUT UP EF.

[evilfantasy]

Don't worry, I said all I was going to about him.

The server is located in the UK and the web site in Germany. (I'm pretty sure)

If you are not in that country then that could be part of the problem. It could be bottlenecked, but I doubt his votes alone are what has it jammed up. There are a bunch of these same polls or whatever they are hosted there.

But like I said I even tried a few different proxies and it was down to them also.

[casse2go]

Thanks ef, I know some of that. Please what does this mean, concerning http and https...It's an excerpt from my email. As I said we have been going back and forth for days about this site.

===========

Sally:  This link uses an “https” prefix rather than the usual “http” prefix.  I wrote Minna a bit earlier about this, and here’s the email I received just a few moments ago in response to my attached question:

 

hey Katheryn,

I get server errors anywhere I try to enter the mallplace.com site. Their service provider is probably unhappy with them at the moment. ;-)

As for the https site, mallplace.com SELLS stuff and needs a secure server for that, but I don't know why they would assign secure connection to a simple voting page. Secure pages load a lot slower than regular web pages. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol to transfer encrypted data over the Web. Information is sent in encrypted form, not as plain text. Therefore, a 'sniffer' can't surreptiously retrieve it. But voting fans aren't sending such info, so security is not required.

If someone gets into the https site at mallplace.com -- I'm getting network errors -- they ought to make sure that the URL wasn't redirected to another site. Keep your eye on the browser's status bar as the website loads. Look for the word 'redirect'. I doubt if this is happening.

Hope you had a nice weekend.

[evilfantasy]

http is what most websites use and https is a secure server. For websites that sell stuff. It's kind of like a firewall only for websites.

but I don't know why they would assign secure connection to a simple voting page.

Kind of makes me even suspicious also. There is no need to secure the server like that for polls.

That link is plastered all over MySpace, Twitter and so on. I'm pretty sure it's a "pay for click" site. Meaning they don't care about the people visiting. Any traffic they can get makes them money and they are likely exploiting emails and maybe even selling them. I would be very wary about what information they want from you.

Hope you had a nice weekend.

Thanks and you too. 

[casse2go]

lol...pay per click? Excuse me for laughing believe me it's through my anger. I'm s furious I could spit bullets. So you mean that for each of those numbers in each of those countries they maybe getting paid? So they could care less about this contest. It's a front.

Excuse me again, my skin is crawling. Okay here is something else, yo touched upon this ef.

This site is running this type of contest in each of the countries rep, by flags in the top of the page. So is each of those countires on a different or same server prolly? because I can access a lesser contest but not the big Elite one that has 100 entrants.

And EF this was a convo between two other ladies. But you're cute to say that.

[BC_Programmer]

it uses SSL but it's certificate is self-signed, meaning it's basically worthless:



Making things more interesting, I did a search for "plesk" via google, to find out what it was. It's a signing authority.

But, I think what's happening here, is a "sample" from plesk is being used on the active web-site. What it boils down to is that, even though it is using the https protocol, it isn't secure at all. They probably would do this in order to "trick" people into thinking it's safe to enter personal information, but I'm just speculating.

[casse2go]

Thanks for all the help guys. I'm getting into the site but I can't vote because that little "+" sign is not there.

[Rob Pomeroy]

Plesk is not a certification authority - it's a server/domain management tool.  It can generate SSL certificates.  ISPs often provide Plesk as a control panel for their customers.

[kpac]

Kind of makes me even suspicious also. There is no need to secure the server like that for polls.

People's peace of mind, maybe? Depending on how important that poll actually is, maybe an SSL connection would be necessary.

[evilfantasy]

No, the more I see the more I know it's just a scam site.

[evilfantasy]

Here is a web site that is promoting this mallplace.com. http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/snarkyarchies.com

Not good.

[BC_Programmer]

Plesk is not a certification authority - it's a server/domain management tool.  It can generate SSL certificates.  ISPs often provide Plesk as a control panel for their customers.

Thanks Rob! So what does this mean, then? If the certificate is intended for "plesk" and is being used by this other site?


 

[casse2go]

Hey again guys, I truly apprecite the feedback you guys are giving and though it may be , well no maybe, it is, over my head. It seems to have opened up dialogue for you guys. Maybe you can help other from this.

Okay about this Mallplace competition being in Snarkey's: This event is posted in all of David's sites. I mean that's what the owners do, they support David. So find this thing being plastered all over the net. And don't forget the other countries who have home people and are posting this event in their sites. So this thing is all over the net, not just in DJA sites.

I mean it's about tweeters.

So if they set this event up to make money, unless I have no idea how much one click brings, they should be breaking banks all over. But is this different from say Amazon or ebay or other sites where ppl buy and sell or just accept posts? Isn't the Internet just a great big ole money making venture for those who wish to make a profit. Isn't Zwinky a money making scheme? haha Don't ppl buy and sell ad space like TV? My DJA FanBlast site is plastered with ads.

Okay now a piece of business. Would someone please tell me the difference between "Click" and "Double Click". Why does it matter?

[evilfantasy]

Do you know the term 'wolf in sheeps clothing'

I can only say this one way and I'll only say it one time.

It is a scam site.

All they want is money and traffic and don't give a *censored* about you David or anyone else. They are using his mane and fake polls to generate money for themselves. Believe that or don't. Your choice.

[casse2go]

EF, I hear you. That's not the point really. Have you ever been an active fan or supporter of an artist? Have any of you to the point that you get what we are doing here?

Now on to another matter. This is a message from Mallplace about Would you advise me to try this? Do you foresee me creating more problems than solving them if I do try changing. Or should I just sit tight and wait for the change.

EF I'll send you a PM if you really don't get David's fan club.  Thanks everyone.

[evilfantasy]

I'm sure everyone gets what being a fan is all about so yes, I understand. I also know there is a difference in being a fan and being fanatic.

Now let me ask this. Do you think David would encourage his fans to put themselves at risk of identity theft or being scammed in any way? His official web site is where his fan club is based. These other sites are cashing in on his name. Most likely without his permission. So ultimately you are (in my opinion) not helping him but rather hurting his good name that he has worked very hard for by supporting these scam artists. Do you think it's fair that they are making money with his name and he doesn't see a dime of it?

Your intentions are good. The intentions of this web site are far from good...

[evilfantasy]

One other little bit of info.

Remember I said this web site is in Germany? American Idol season (don't know which season he was) is now being aired in Germany. They are seeing it for the first time. Do you see the connection now as to why they are (illegally) promoting his name? He is brand new there.

You would do him a better service by outing these scam sites instead of supporting them.

[casse2go]

Why are you arguing with me about this? Twitter has millions of customers, any of them are entered into this thing not just David, I just trust you guys enough to have brought this to your attention. And EF you didn't address my question.

David himself has not tweeted about this contest, David never asks us to support anything that his name goes on except charity work. We keep telling ppl, this is not David, it's us, his support. We are promoting/supporting his name. Mallplace, whatever they are doing are also promoting him by simply posting his name and pic.

Please answer my question. If you want to debate this, later, okay.

I just read you add-on: EF, again, when this thing started there were pps and pps and pps of names. Each page had at least 100 pics of tweeters. David isn't being singles out. My God have you see some of the names in the 100. Oprah was one of the pics EF. Please don't single out DJA. If you are a twitter mem and tweet a lot someone may have added you.

[evilfantasy]

A) Substitute his name with any of the others that are or were on the list.

B) You trust us but only when it's what you want to hear... I'm placing you in the fanatic category.

This question?

Now on to another matter. This is a message from Mallplace about Would you advise me to try this? Do you foresee me creating more problems than solving them if I do try changing. Or should I just sit tight and wait for the change.

I fail to see the actual question...

[patio]

What is this voting for ? ?

[Karnac]

It's a popularity contest where fanatics wear their little fingers to the bone trying to vote their favorite person to global prominence.........a pay per click marketing scam, paying maybe half a cent a click or less to the hosts...I still don't understand it all......Seems to take advantage of a lot of people.

[casse2go]

You guys trivialixe everything i'm saying here. And EF I do trust what you say and respect it but can I get the same treatment in return. Can you just respect what I do without putting me or David's base down for supporting him. We support him in anyting not just this thing.

And I wanted to know about DNS or whatever it is. Should I try and change it myself or wait for my ISP to switch over. I have no idea what it is or if I could do damage by trying to make the switch myself. But forget that I even asked. I'll wait.

And EF, the term you so flippantly use "fanatic", is the term that won David a TCA for having the most FANATIC FANS. However, when you use it, it seems to go beyond devotion and is why we fought TCA tooth and nail to change the cat to Most Devoted Fans.

And our dedication to this man makes us work our little fingers to the bone voting for him. Yes, he's that speacial a human being. And trust me EF, if you were a fan of his your fingers would be working as well.

[evilfantasy]

They want you to change your DNS? You might as well make it easy and just post your private information online or send the it through an email or post it online.

Full story
Internet security experts are warning of a new rash of malware attacks that can hijack the security settings of a wide variety of devices on a local area network, even when they are hardened or don't run on Windows operating systems.

You guys trivialixe everything i'm saying here.

Not true. I'm trying to make you see that you are being used.

"fanatic", is the term that won David a TCA for having the most FANATIC FANS.

There are more than one TCA award. You need to be more specific. Teen Choice Awards?

And trust me EF, if you were a fan of his your fingers would be working as well.

That would make me some kind of pervert. Even if it were someone I really like I wouldn't do it if I thought I was being used.

-

I've tried to give you all of the information and warnings I can but I've failed to get through. Good luck to both you and him....

[casse2go]

EF, I wanted advice about the DNS, you gave it, finally. And I accept it. I won't mess with the thing. The site seems to be in some kind of transition anyway. And they have removed David from everything except the USA. So I'm guessing they feel e is creating most of the bottlenecking.

Are you btw, saying David's base are perverts? As I said previously, Mallplace isn't using us any more than we are them. It's a mutually beneficial thing. Have you ever heard that even bad publicity is good. Come one EF. It's all a game.

I have one huge headache. Thank you for the help I really do appreciate it.

Thanks all of you.

[evilfantasy]

Are you btw, saying David's base are perverts?

No I'm saying I have kids his age so liking him that much would be strange at the very least.

[casse2go]

EF I have Grand kinds David's age and I find there are a ton of his support that are over the age of 18. B because you don't know anything about this young man you just make assumptions based on what you may read in an on line article. I watched this young man when he was just a kid on Star Search, he was a great kid then with a powerful voice. He lost that voice then God constructed a totally new one for him and he entered AI where he did splendidly. His voice is lowering because God is still working with him. He lost his voice again during his solo tour in the spring. After the first show, God changed it again. David performs with incredible odds against him, and why shouldn't we admire his work ethic as well as his character?

You see EF there are those of us who are so responsive to this man because we see so much good in him not just his voice this is a blessed human being. Something the world needs so much, As for me, I don't think Music is what God has in mind for David. I think it goes way beyond that, but time will tell. This man is in love with his music but he is capable of so much more and that is why we suppport him so. I told my two sons (who are much older than David) that he is their new brother. If he were indeed my child, I couldn't love him more. And EF that is how all of us feel about David James Archuleta... all of us. Now if that is perversion, then call me perverse.

People please forgive my rant...today just isn't a good day or I'm in sleep deprivation.

[BC_Programmer]

your not listening to a god *censored* thing Evilfantasy is telling you, and YOUR twisting HIS words.

because you don't know anything about this young man you just make assumptions based on what you may read in an on line article

HE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT HIM! He's talking about the voting site, NOT started by him but rather by some people trying to PROFIT off of his fans, such as yourself, by making them believe that the results of some twitter poll will have far-reaching effects.

He tells you it's a scam site, taking advantage of this fellow, who you like very much.

you turn around and say something about "us loyal fans" at "mallplace" or something, and it makes no sense at all!

but, here's the bottom line anyway, even if the site was legit- the votes don't mean a *censored* thing. it's twitter for god's sake. And American Idol, Or any of it's country-specific spin-off's, I consider no better then Survivor, for entertainment value or otherwise.

As for me, I don't think Music is what God has in mind for David. I think it goes way beyond that, but time will tell. This man is in love with his music but he is capable of so much more and that is why we suppport him so.

And yet your just a fan, not a fanatic. You may as well say he's bigger then jesus. At least now it won't have as big an impact as it did with the beatles 

[casse2go]

Why am I the bad guy here? You see evilfantasy, youget no credit for what you said about David long ago. so long it has been forgotten.

Okay BC_again, if the state of Maryland wanted to run a lottery, they would it's a scam because only a few or maybe one will win, but they buy tickets anyway. This site, wanted to make money apart from their on-line store so they ran this competition. Who cares? They're making money and David Archuleta's name goes up in sites all around the world.

David had not said one tweet about vote for me, like others have. We are the ones who are supporting him. If this were SU2C we would support him there to or Invisible Children, or any of the other charities where his name is linked. It's what we do. Don't you get that. We support whatever his name is linked to. Now when I go back and tell my club they are supporting a scam site. what do you think they'll do? I have mentioned to them already about the  site's click and earn. None of them have stopped supporting David yet. They don't care about that. They care about promoting David to the general public, and backing the name David James Archuleta.

You act as though David's family or label or Managers don't know about this thing. None of them have said to Mallplace remove the name David Archuleta. It's promotion.  Man you guys wear me out.

I hear EF, I have since he said this was a site making money long ago, but he/she refuses to hear what I'm saying. Bernard madoff, made off with millions from people, they had no idea they were being scammed. For the ppl whose names are being used here, If they're being scammed and they want to sue they will. But they are also being promoted. Trade-off. Sites on line either mostly make or pay money. Doesn't CH? If you don't have to pay for anything how lucky you are. But do you make money? And if so does that make CH a scam site.

 

[BC_Programmer]

I make money through a job, not by putting a bunch of famous/popular people on a web page without their prior authorization in an effort to expunge funds from the people who trust those people, while all the while claiming to use secure http without a valid certificate.

they would it's a scam because only a few or maybe one will win, but they buy tickets anyway.

your missing my point. it's not a scam for the people being voted for (IE, the one winner) but a scam since the people RUNNING the vote, the ones with the invalid security certificate, are stealing personal information from the voters and selling it to others. the victims are BOTH the fans, because they are going to likely be the victims of identity theft, as well as those being featured on the site, since their name is involved with this whole scheme.

Adding further to this is the fact that the people running mallplace.com are or were known spammers. Likely they are selling the personal information to not only other spam sites but also identity thieves.


IT's the FANS that are being LEECHED for personal information! Why else would they want you change your DNS? there is no "innocent" reason to ask you to do so.

My browser wouldn't even let me go there without skipping through a warning about it's SSL certificate.

I hear EF, I have since he said this was a site making money long ago, but he/she refuses to hear what I'm saying.

And if so does that make CH a scam site.

you obviously don't even have a clue what a scam site would be. they aren't scamming people out of money, they are scamming them out of their personal information. And even if it isn't that there is something deeper, as indicated by your query regarding DNS. if CH makes any money it's through advertisements. advertiser's pay to have their advertisements displayed on the CH main page. the people seeing those advertisements choose wether they want to not only examine the ads in more detail (via the links) but also wether they want to buy them. In this case, chances are voters are never asked "can we vend your personal information to any third party willing ot pay us for it?"


There is a difference between loyal fans and brainless sheep. most people like david want loyal fans, not brainless sheep willing to give out their personal information to what they believe is a good cause, while subsequently unaware, not only that the vote doesn't matter anyway, since it's twitter- it's not changing anything... but  also that any personal information they reveal may be sold to any interested third parties.

Basically, they are banking on what you said- that you'll support anything with his name, regardless of wether or wether or not he gave his personal approval.

the trade-off isn't between being scammed and promoting his name. it's trading the personal information of thousands, maybe millions of fans, for the meaningless votes on some random twitter vote.


It's a web-site. it can't change the world. Continue supporting your idol, but please stop being brainless sheep followers while doing it. it's a web-based poll for god's sake.

I think that casse2go believes that if his name is on it then it must be supported because it David <- Substitute that name with Oprah if you wish, she has millions of fanatics also.

Just because his name is on it and we are saying it is a bad site has nothing to do with us saying something out of line about David. It's the web site we are attacking. Not him! Forget him for a second..., well if you can, and just see what we are really trying to tell you. It's a SCAM WEBSITE.

Maybe someone should tweet David and inform him his good name is associated with an identity stealing scam website....I wonder if he doesn't already know?.....Mmmmm, might be worth a couple of ducats to his next show.....I think I'll tweet Oprah, never been to Chicago

I have no idea who this David person is, but there's no possible way that he's worth 5 pages of confusing banter.  I say if this casse2go person wants to get scammed so badly, just let them.  There's obviously no convincing him/her.  Just let them enjoy all of the spam and such.

You people can be so darned condescending. This morning I wanted to ask your opinion on this message from the webmaster at Mallplace.
======

I did contact the webmaster & got this message back from him:

“Due to the success of the tweeter competitions, we have had to move hosting companies as our previous host was unable to support the level of traffic we were experiencing. Although the move has been completed, it will take a few hours while your Internet Service Provider updates their records to point to our new servers.

Only follow these steps if you are comfortable changing settings on your computer -
If you don't wish to wait until your ISP catches up, and you are comfortable and capable to do so, you could change your DNS settings for your computer to OpenDNS by following the steps outlined on this page https://www.opendns.com/start/ and then clear the cache on your browser.”

So MAYBE now the problems getting in to that site are over??"

I finally got a reply from one of you to not mess with it. SO I said fine. I won't. You continue to address the fact that you think I can't read. I was told many post ago that you think the SITE is a spam site. That not only is it getting paid on each click but garnering info on those you Register there. So I wanted to know what's the difference in this site and so many other just like it who scam/spam their members. You might or might not be surprised at who might or might not sell info that you simply show a card to at a club. When you buy shoes or pay for a hair cut with a card. So scamming and trading info is what ppl do.

I doubt that the internet is filled to the brim with mindless twits. No not everyone is a computer geek, not not all of us are idiots either. So the site is scamming all of those people for their personal info. How many sites don't get and trade into? When you log onto a site you take your chances.

And yes, I got way back there that the site wasn't scamming David, in spite of what appeared to be. None of David's fans or fans of any of the other people on this site and voting seem to have a problem with the site being a scam site. I tell you what. you go on there and comment that it is and see who says, I'm leaving and telling others not to reg. here. Or write to the webmaster to decry the site as a scammer.

Leave it up to whatever group monitors that art of the net. As for me and my club we are supporting David.

As for this David Mallplace the scammer issue. I'm done with it.

Wat?



Take it easy, I'm just playing...

You keep thinking we are calling you names or thinking you don't know anything at all. If that was the case I would have given up long ago. Trust me on that.

Good luck!

P.S. OpenDNS is safe, and free. But don't start messing with it unless you are sure what you are doing. You may be opening up way more then you mean to.
