    hence the reason i barely participate in the threads anymore.. part of me feels the great hits thread needs to be closed off to registered members only.. but that would encourage trolls to sign up since its the busiest thread on the forum.. and even if the entire forum is closed there is no way to avoid trolls... just gotta keep hitting ignore for now..

    I still remember what strlfn said about attacking and destroying this forum. It's the first thing that comes to my mind whenever I see a spammer flooding the new posts section, trolling and finally this porn attack!!!

    All these people signing up and posting pictures, and spamming in the most valuable thread hurts a lot. I check this thread only in slow times now. I'm sticking to turkalert, hitsworth turking for, and the few others.

    I'm with you, it does hurt a lot.. it clogs the thread and apparently is offensive.. i say that because i did not actually see what was posted today but by the comments it must have been pretty bad.. i don't even use turk alert.. i used to post all kinds of batch hits and answer questions about requesters that people were nervous to do.. but i'm good on all that. i will just sign in, keep to my list of requesters i like, and go from there :)

    Don't give up yet. There are some fools running around here, but for the most part this is an extremely helpful site still. There have been a couple of incidents of spamming and inappropriate content, but this is few and far between for the most part. We like you here!

    You can also turn them off client-side in your browser:

    Chrome: Settings ---> Privacy: Content Settings ---> Images and set up exceptions there.

    ImgLikeOpera is a great add on for Firefox to do similar filtering.

    Hi Fellow Turkers, Man, I hope the crazies went back in sulfur lake!!!

    This site has facilitated many to 1. Learn about Turking 2. Learn how to increase earnings $. 3. Have a place to vent about shady requesters. 4.Belong to the number 1 turkers rehab... ALL THE ABOVE AND MORE!!!

    HATERS are one of the signs of GREATNESS!!!

    Lets appreciate and support Andy & this site by everyone who hasn't as of yet, register to the site and contribute to it. This forum has many different aspects and threads not just this one that can use intellectual contribution to further it's development and maintenance.

    Also I think it would be great to expand the requester thread to further include more requesters and we can further sing the praises of the great ones and also put the bad ones on blast!!! (Respectfully)

    Everyone here is talented in one way or another and has been contributing to this GRAND EXPERIMENT!!!

    Also I've had websites in the past. It has costs involved both monetarily and from input of time. Support the site by responding to ads at the top that correspond to your individual interests!!!

    *Wishes that everyone suddenly learns how to speak Turkish language so they wouldn't have to return $100 - find info by calling schools Hit like he had to few weeks back. Still in withdrawal*

    Speaking of this, is there any way we could send a few bucks towards the bill as a small thanks. I, for one, would have never made it to where I am now without this open style forum and the people here who make it happen.
