But, we can and do know, because it is completely impossible for it to happen. This product cannot possibly block the legitimate human applicant.

But annoyed? Unless of course, just a registration page itself, annoys them. You're right, it might.:D

And I'll refer back to the original post about the testing:

It's post #10 of the thread.

Taking applications means we're making a list of volunteer testers. The preliminary tests are happening only on our own sites, the larger test involving the volunteers, will be a test of the full product. We haven't added any testers beyond our own sites as yet - you're not being left out I assure you.

Ozzy will decide who from the list of volunteers will get the full product for testing.

What if someone registers from say tapatalk does it block spammers on this or block normal users or does it even work alongside it

Paul M 02-19-2015 05:49 PM

This is starting to look like a marketing / promotion thread. How about you just release it for testing, just like everyone else does, or come back when you have something other than hype to post about. :)

ForceHSS 02-19-2015 05:54 PM

Agree with Paul

That was all well covered earlier in the thread.

This is a tester recruiting thread. It can't be a marketing/promotion thread because we're not selling, anything. We are attempting to line up candidates to beta test a free product soon to be coming to the vBorg community.

We don't believe in releasing a half baked product relying on the vBorg community as unwitting guinea pigs to work bugs out of a product. We want volunteer testers who would like to step forward and be WILLING guinea pigs.:D

You gave me a good and needed laugh this afternoon, thank you.

It takes less time to scroll back a coupla pages than it would for you to ask me to post it all again.

ForceHSS 02-19-2015 06:14 PM

Well, I had a few mins and looked for it. Its on page 4 but the answer was not known

Answer was known, and told. But keep reading on page 5 for more detail.:D

ForceHSS 02-19-2015 06:20 PM

Ok seen page 5 I see it was fully answered. Cant wait until the app is posted so far sounds good this hope it lives up to everything being said about it then this site can install it will stop the spammers here once and for all

That will never happen.

ForceHSS 02-19-2015 06:32 PM

Don't see why not if it stops spammers only 100% as what is running now does not work 100%

ozzy47 02-19-2015 06:46 PM

Explain to me how this is a marketing thread?

Because of all the good information it provides about Tapatalk. Obviously, we're spamming for TT.:D

TheLastSuperman 02-19-2015 11:11 PM

I went from page 1 to 7 and by that I mean I hit last page :p.

Where is this plugin? Like Zachery said upload it here - where does everyone go and what is one of the most talked about topics here usually? Spam spam spammity spam spam, its whats for dinner! Those who need it will come, those it works for might spare time to comment and mark as installed.

I'm very interested to see how it can't possibly block a legit human, I've seen that tried before in many fashions and some used the anti-spam phrases if one field check failed, they will move on if one error until a site gives them no troubles when registering so make sure its fail-proof in that respect because humans can be mighty silly or not think and typo etc.

ozzy47 02-19-2015 11:19 PM

It's coming Mike, I am adding another aspect to the system, and it is giving me a bit of trouble.

Max just got a bit excited and posted this way to early. :p

TheLastSuperman 02-19-2015 11:21 PM

Also I just realized this might have been what you asked me to help with that I completely forgot about and didn't have time for last week was it? I think so, in that case the delay was due to me :eek:.

ozzy47 02-19-2015 11:25 PM

Well yeah, that kinda threw a monkey wrench in the system. :p

Then it was delayed a week, while someone else looked into it, but it did not go smoothly. So now it is being completely re-written.

You left us stranded.... We had a sad.

It's definitely got nothing to do with any of that stuff.


I'm really having a hard time grasping what the problem is, starting a thread in the lounge looking to round up some testers for a new product. Of course, it's not the usual way we see things done, with the throwing out of a product hoping there's not too many bugs in it and having the community find them for you. Oh wait, that's exactly the vB5 model!

Yeah, we don't really like that model. We've explained it.

I mentioned in pm just now that I was behind on work when asked so if I forgot was due to that only not intentional :cool:. I was hoping it would be something cool like Sir Adrian's Fick Spam mod that was pretty neat imo just the way he thought to do it so I'll just wait to see, hurry up and no I'm still behind I shouldn't even be on here now welp back to work!

Max Taxable 02-20-2015 12:40 AM

You're not the Last Superman, I saw a newer one just the other day.:p

Black Snow 02-20-2015 06:54 AM

I'll be a beta tester for this mod if you want more people.

You should provide a link to those....

The human spammer will always see his own spam. Didn't you do any reading here?

You dont have to be selling something to promote/market it.

Snide comments like the one I removed will not help you in any way either.

Since its just a recruiting thread, there is no need for it to drag on, anyone willing to test is free to contact you.
