Just a short note: I've noticed that an increasing number of people are using anonymizer URLs or CGI proxies when postings news items. Depending on the time of the day, my current work load, and how much time I have to do moderation tasks (currently not a lot), such items are very likely to be removed, rather than edited. A lot of these links just flat out don't work for anyone other than the person submitting the news item, and as such the quick fix is to just delete the entire item, rather than wait for the end of the day to be able to edit, and in the meanwhile have hundreds of people click on a link that doesn't work...

MOTD 24/3/2004 : Comment 17 of 17 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Agima on 25-Mar-2004 18:40 GMT | In reply to Comment 15 (Wayne Dresing, PhD.): Wayne Dresing, PhD is (insert supsensful music here) --- DoomMaster---
What he is talking about is if you use a service like anonymizer.com and come here and post a link ... like http://www.amiga.org
For some reason after you submit the post the link automatically gets changed to something like ... http://anonymizer.com/some=string==here=amiga.org even though you only typed in http://www.amiga.org
Does that explanation make any sense? I hope so.
Anyway, how's it going Dommy? |
