That's exactly what I thought of when I noticed the topic appeared in the Hot Forum Threads listings. I had to click in out of curiosity though, as I didn't want to spend the long Memorial Day weekend scratching my head ... :oops:

I'm now officially baffled. On the front page, the sub-header entitled Hot Forum Threads lists the 4 most recently active forum topics. I clicked on the topic title Levitra prezzo in farmacia, curious about the prospect of an honest to gosh Italian (or at least that of one who speaks Italian). This is because no self-respecting stereotypical Italian male I've ever been acquainted with would ever dream of discussing the need for erectile dysfunction treatment, (though I can picture an enraged, fiery Italian femme fatale hurling insults to that regard).

Anyway, I clicked into the topic & was greeted by a starting post consisting of a single word: "Cialis". The thread was started by a Gerbil In Training / first-time poster whose moniker I don't recall. I did note that the post occurred ~ 45 minutes before my arrival.

Jump forward several hours (to "Now") & I find the original post (Cialis) has been removed & that I'm inexplicably listed as the Topic Starter; this despite the fact that my post (seen above) was in fact a reply, albeit one that did not contain a quote from the original topic starting post. Anybody have any idea what's going on?

The last time I checked I wasn't in need of Cialis though I'm beginning to wonder about possibly needing medication to combat the onset of dementia. File me under #I Am Curious Yellow :o

Edit: Turns out I still had open the browser tab that displayed the original post I'm referring to, so I took a screenshot. Just who is this cypher, the mysterious & ephemeral "dottmano"? At least I can safely pass on the dementia meds (but now I'm getting really curious about Cialis & that whole 4 hours thing that they're always sure to stress ... you know ... as a "warning":

Mods will get to spam posts eventually, but not necessarily in realtime. We will usually just move the thread to the junk yard and swing the "Hammer of Banning (HoB) +4" to the poster. This is why you should use the Report function to let the mods know about the spam posts, instead of replying to it. This serves a few purposes:
1. The mods may notice them quicker with reported posts.
2. You don't bump the spam thread in the Hot Forum threads section on the front page.
3. And when we split/move the posts, you don't end up with an orphaned thread like this one with no context. And people think that you are weird or something. :lol: :P

Also, I have moved the thread to the Porch. This has nothing to do with General Hardware.

If the original post said "Cialis" I can see why it was posted where it was. /rimshot
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.

Thanks for the explanation. Will try to be more awake going forward & really don't know why spam didn't even occur to me (I loathe the stuff ... guess I'm not used to spam in Italian ...)

What we have today is way too much pluribus and not enough unum.

Do you have anything without quite so much Italian Spam in it? I actually have more of an appetite for dessert ... say, a blancmange, perhaps ...
(Of course with blancmange there's always the risk of being turned into a Scotsman ... or being eaten ... or having to take center court in the finals at Wimbledon. But a good blancmange is worth any risk!)

On a side note, IMHO Monty Python ascended to ... and still represents ... the absolute pinnacle of collective human civilization. We've been in descent ever since they planted the flag.

The Lobster Thermidor aux Crevette with a Mornay sauce served in a provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and Spam sounds good to me.
