I saw a PM notification in the upper right corner.

[shortylickens]

Thought "sure as shit the mods are pissed off again, what did I do this time?"

It was not the mods.

I'm almost sad.

 

[sdifox]

don't worry they'll remedy that in a short while.

 

[snoopy7548]

Same here. I've only been warned a couple of times (not recently), and I've developed a fear of seeing the dreaded PM notification.

1st thought, WTF did I do this time? Might have to put that guy on ignore if he's going to send one every week.

 

[purbeast0]

What the fuck now they have decided to spam people on these forums with articles no one cares about? If I wanted to read those articles I would go there without having to be spammed.

 

[Red Squirrel]

lol I thought the same thing.

 

[zinfamous]

For me it's either: Another infraction, or highland is drunk-messaging me again.

This time, I get "news," such as:

Intel recently made quite the splash when they announced that their CEO, Jim Keller, had resigned with immediate effect.

really, so-called Anandtech? Jim Keller is the CEO of Intel? wtf, so-called Anandtech....

Be honest. You sent pics 1st.

 

[DigDog]

same, same, and same.

This.

 

[Doom Monger]

You people are so cranky. I saw that and thought it was wonderful that I had made a new friend that wanted to share important news with me. I sent him a picture of my kids goldfish which started circling the bowl in a different direction today. That's the kind of news my friends would want to know. About an hour from now I'm going to watch some infomercials and will send him video snippets that show products he might like. That Ronco salad-spinner is going to revolutionize our lives.

 

[Midwayman]

Yah. Sticky a thread for this stuff if you want. Don't screw with the infraction notification system.

 

[zinfamous]

[brianmanahan]

Exactly...

 

[FirNaTine]

Seriously, is there a way to stop those? I don't see an option to ignore (or more accurately report spam.)

 

[s0me0nesmind1]

Ads? In MY infraction box? It's more likely than you think....

 

[sactoking]

Infractions? What planet do you people live on? That's the "someone needs advice on their health insurance" notification box.

 

[BudAshes]

I don't even see the old infraction points anymore. I think the mods have been nerfed and it's basically a free for all now.

Nah...I get reminded occasionally that the points are still around...and that the mods are still paying attention to the sniveling of the snowflakes.

I'm sorry if I've given some of you trauma, by activating your "infraction notification system alert", by sending you some offers to purchase PC parts by PM. (I generally only do this to people that are actively creating threads about buying or upgrading PCs. I don't cold-call / cold-PM anyone, unless I've dealt business with them before.)

Anyways, people know I'm a good peep. I hope.

Maybe they have just finally come to the realization that I am doing God's work.

 

[Muadib]

I'm stunned by the number of you that was scared.....

 

[highland145]

Cause we're rebels without a clue.

Yeah.
