Matrix Games Forums

just goes to show how a useless waste of space like Temu spends it time, sending out idiots to spam boards and forums and stops everyone from having even the smallest hope of ever even using it, makes me laugh, why would anyone want junk from people who spam others for sales?

do not reply to the spam.

do not buy from Temu, ever period and tell everyone you know to block them.

do not posts on the spammers posts, carry on as normal and just forget the idiot is here,

hopefully they will soon get the message and leave.

seems he ran out of 10p, for now, or is having his tea, or bed time as he will need his sleep as if he fails school and ends up being a full time spammer, there's no hope for him

Too bad that Matrix does not block the MAC and IP addresses of the spammers. The IP address can change but the MAC address will stay with the computer and/or card for the internet.

Actually, the mad Temu Spammer has some great deals.
Just ordered 6+ different tool kits as a new customer.
less that $50 all together.
I would never use this godless commie soft aluminum tools.
But I'm giving away to my nephew's roommate, the kid needs to learn some skills and help out.
The screwdriver set, I admit, is for me, always losing them.

i wouldn't support a waste of space like Temu if they gave it to me for free, i'd preferer to pay and support people who don't send out spammers all over the world to post junk, that's poor corporate practice and in the end will upset more than buying cheap junk that most of the time isn't any good either, you get most of the time what you pay for, cheap quite often means junk

Indeed.

There should also be about a 3 threads started per day maximum to avoid this garbage in the future.

Depending upon the user. At most 1 thread per day started for new users.

More ideally more users post in forums. Spam will be minor. Reddit formed in 2005 and Ekşi sözlük (1999) Anyway this forum should be a closed community only one or 2 topics interest most users. I don't see much diversity about topics that get interest why full moderation is necessary. With selected users perhaps will be more interesting community..

We did that once I was a moderator in local Paradox forum. General discusssion only for selected users.

Dear Forum Members and Edmon:

Whoever reports me constantly or finds me a bad Forum member.

I was given a board warning for what I posted in this thread buying Temu products.

I was checking the General Forum when the Spam was going on.
It wasn't me spamming.
I'm not baiting anyone.

The statement was satire.

Do I have a total misunderstanding of the General Forum. I've asked ChapGPT

Here's the answer I got from ChatGPT:

When Satire Can Be Problematic:

Misunderstood – If people don’t realize something is satire, they may take it literally or be misled.

Poorly executed – Bad satire can come across as mean-spirited, offensive, or just lazy, especially if it "punches down" (targets the powerless).

Used to mask real harm – Sometimes people claim “it’s just satire” as a defense when their content is actually just hateful or misleading.

Bottom Line:
Good satire challenges. Bad satire insults. It’s not about being “nice”—it’s about being purposeful, clever, and responsible with humor.


Guess I gotta apologize to whoever is furious at me.

Please don't reply to spam, no matter how tempted you are.

Thank you. Now I understand. I won't reply or make satire of spam.

And thank you for explaining, nicely.

There is nothing wrong in your post. But also you should ask Chat GP what are the most common conflicts developed. Lately Silitherine put Field of Glory: Kingdoms - 25th Slitherine anniversary content as London office in Field of Glory Kingdoms (glad they were funding this game by the way dev much better focussed than CK'3 with all DLC's). Giving buff to England from office...Timeframe primary focused on England&Normans and Byzantine(s) and the Seljuk. There is already SC Pasific extended further development. What you want from general discussion?

In addition to a very small max threads per day for a new user, they also need to not allow any links until they have 10 posts or something like that.

The spammer that threw up the 3 advertisement topics in General just now has links.

Oh...spammer. I clicked on this looking for a Temu spanner

I replied asking if there was a Temu Steel Tigers but removed it

Sharing my known experiences with Temu. Well, they're not my experience, but my closest friend, since 6th grade. He ordered "Wheel Lights" for his sport's car, it's a Camaro. As the wheels spin....you get it. The cost was 1/5th of normal auto part/accessories. Day he drove over, we were going to rode trip for dinner at the casino, meeting up with bunch of folks. Of course, the wheel lights didn't work. There was no power source connected to the lights, lol! Reflectors, like the bikes of the 1980's I had.

Product #2 ordered, he got some golf shirts, size XL. You can guess. XL in Temu, are for toddler.

[Question #1] to ChatGPT, asking was what I said "hearsay" (The answer):

Yes, Mr. Legend, what you shared technically counts as hearsay, because you’re describing someone else’s experience, not your own direct one. In legal or formal contexts, hearsay typically refers to secondhand information—statements made outside of court offered to prove the truth of the matter stated—and is often inadmissible.

But in casual conversation, online reviews, or general storytelling, people commonly share others' experiences like this. It only becomes an issue when you're claiming it's objective fact or using it in a legal/dispute setting.

[Question #2] Am I baiting or being political? Chat GPT responded:

Mr. Legend, what you said is not political and does not qualify as baiting on a forum—as long as it's shared in a fair and honest tone.

Sure thing, Mr. Legend. Here are the lyrics
"(You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care" – Elvis Presley
You don't like crazy music
You don't like rockin' bands
You just wanna go to a movie show
And sit there holdin' hands

It at least got the hex base down, sort of..
