How many of you got a PM from jenniferloop about starting a new forum? Spam?


I am just launching a quilting forum. For that reason i need some one who can register there. And post there quilting work and tutorial. As the site will be new there will be no much users, But if u write some of ur work people will surely come. Plz support me if u can help by joining my forum ,and newbie can profit from ur tu8torial and work.

This will surely give u a high reputation when we reach 30k users in 6 month. As u will be the oldest member there .
Plz let me know what u think about it

sewbeadit 10-27-2011 12:33 AM

I did not, but that really doesn't mean too much.

ckcowl 10-27-2011 01:26 AM

when you receive spam you need to bring it to the attention of the administrators (patrice)---

alikat110 10-27-2011 02:51 AM

She just registered here oct 20th.....had plan to just draw members apparently.....

Opal Jane 10-27-2011 03:20 AM

There was a previous post that there were some unhappy people on this board and another board was being created, maybe she is the creator. Doesn't much matter to me as I like it here and have no plans to join another board.

cheryl222 10-27-2011 03:24 AM

Sure doesn't seem on the up and up with the very poor spelling and grammar. Reminds me of the letters I(Spam) telling me some wonderful benefactor in Nigeria left me millions and all I had to do was send a couple of thousand to release it!

redmadder 10-27-2011 03:28 AM

Maybe trying to create a marketing base, using text abbre.

raptureready 10-27-2011 03:56 AM

I'm not sure that that's allowed here but make sure Patrice knows about it. Shoddy actions to say the least.

dakotamaid 10-27-2011 04:06 AM

Sounds fishy! I would not go there.

Favorite Fabrics 10-27-2011 04:16 AM

Could be a plan to create a site, hoping to just get a lot of visitors, in order to make money off of advertising revenue. You know, like the ads that appear on this forum.

'Course, we know that here there is lots of good content! People won't keep coming back if there isn't really any good content.

dakotamaid 10-27-2011 04:33 AM

Could also be way to add your email to spam. Or a virus. How would one know so I keep away.

grammatjr 10-27-2011 05:09 AM

I avoid anything with bad spelling like that, as it is usually not legitimate - someone said it right - it is like those "a stranger has entrusted you with a million dollars" thing. Probably a virus, spam or phishing.

And, don't know about anyone else, but this group has so much info, inspiration, etc - I have a hard time keeping up with it, let alone another group!

Bad grammar and bad spelling are not acceptable when begging with words.

simplyme 10-27-2011 05:45 AM

Wow! I missed out. Her wording was so bad I had to read it twice before I was sure what she was asking. What I got was she wanted to profit from others work. So nice that she asked!!!

CarrieAnne 10-27-2011 05:50 AM

Didnt get that one, But I got the Nigerian one, lol. I wonder if people still fall for THAT?!

BigDog 10-27-2011 05:55 AM

I really don't like lazy people who can't spell out words like YOU and I can't tolerate people who can't spell simple words like 'their'.

Sorry, she's a no-go for me.

QuiltnNan 10-27-2011 06:21 AM

sometimes folks use that 'poor spelling' to avoid spam protectors that look for certain key words.

Xstitshmom 10-27-2011 06:51 AM

Tacky!

I don't read them when they are like this, and I don't read the posts that are in all capital letters. My eyes really complain if I do...

jrtpetey 10-27-2011 05:23 PM

I didn't receive it.

tuesy 10-27-2011 05:26 PM

No, I haven't, but I read somewhere on here once that if you get spam in your PM, to let the Mods know and they'll take care of it.

Thanks, Patrice, for being on top of this and protecting us;

chatonne40 10-28-2011 03:20 AM

I have all the information and posts to read that I need on here, I don't care about other boards. It takes my free morning hours just to go trough this one. Even if I wouldn't be happy one day with the posts (and it didn't happend yet) the day after might be the best one ever ;-)
Long life to the Quilting board!
Have a nice day ALL

Traditional 10-28-2011 04:26 AM

I love it here and have a hard limiting the time I spend here. I feel this group has so much to give.
She did not entice me.

Patrice, I just really looked at your avatar. I am sure that is what you must look like after a day's moderating! :roll:

rj.neihart 10-28-2011 04:36 AM

I like it here and no intentions of joining another board. I get all I need from this board on a daily basis, plus reading past posts. All of these posts have helped me tremendously!

Greenheron 10-28-2011 04:42 AM

Not to me sent its implausible and scurrilous message. Never involved be with someone Yoda like sounds. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

michelehuston 10-28-2011 04:52 AM

I think that this board is the best!! Have looked at other sites, but came back here and not looking anymore! The moderators do a great job and I really see little negativity. This is a safe place where we can vent a little, encourage each other and show off a bit! I am a bit appalled that someone would join just to recruit, but I guess thats the way some people are.

you might be right about that. :lol:

Deborah12687 10-28-2011 05:20 AM

This board is the best ever and I have checked out others just for variety and was not impressed with any of them. I am so hooked on this board as it is the best one out there and have lots of wonderful helpful quilters and it is so full of great information and willing to help others learn. Every morning I grab my coffee and check out the board for the new posts.

DottyD 10-28-2011 05:45 AM

I did not get it, but I would not even think about going anywhere else -- it is so nice here !

Caswews 10-28-2011 05:57 AM

wow !!! Thanks Patrice for shutting that account down .. Doesn't sound good for sure .. never got that pm, thank goodness.

nannyrick 10-28-2011 06:08 AM

Same here. I,m not going anywhere.

Email harvesting would be my concern.

Raggiemom 10-28-2011 06:19 AM

This board is all I need! I'll never be able to make all the quilts that I've fallen in love with on here :)

chaskaquilter 10-28-2011 06:20 AM

Can't imagine another board that would be as good as this one. It is so well run and watched over and so full of fascinating folks and quilting everything. I spend enough time on here, just wouldn't have any left for any other board.
