it could make sense if it's a jab at ford's voters or if he's talking about 905 "citizens" who endorsed, volunteered or campaigned for ford, but 416 constituents didn't mostly vote against him. either it's a jab or ignorance of the telephone system.

but wouldn't that be taking the nannny state to the extreme? if anything, the 5 cent fee is the state forcing capitalism on retailers with environmentallly positive side effects. free bags was a bit socialist if you ask me. you getting pinko on us? ;)

and you know they'll do it with a plastic bag over their head. actually, that could be the reason for their issues in the first place.

it's better than doing nothing though. not all spammers have access to such methods.

did the threads actually contain anything illegal? or was it just typical gibberish spam with links to phishing/malware sites?

i was going to contact the site owner but in the process of doing so, i saw he was last online after the spamming took place so he is probably aware and taking the appropriate steps. there's no sense in sending him a message because he's probably got hundreds already. what a shitty way to spend...

the offending threads haven't been deleted yet like regular spam would have been by now, so i can only assume that the admins are leaving them in situ for an investigation. i wonder if it was a bot or a human? there should be CAPTCHA enabled for new members so bots can't post. the ipod spam was...

merry christmas! and a happy boxing day! :)

this user: http://urbantoronto.ca/member.php?7225-Estirutty has spammed the entire forum with topics related to illegal content. i don't even want to open the threads because they might contain horrible images. i view this less as spam and more of an attack on the forum its self. this is...

and a merry christmas to you too!

dude, chill. i'm not riding you. we're just having a conversation here. i just wanted to know why you felt the way you did on the subject. back to the subject, i think christmas seems more commercialized now than then because of technical innovations in media and advertising and inexpensive...

why do you think christmas is more commercialized now than it was in 1897?

i think a better solution would be public service such as graffiti removal, garbage cleanup, waterproofing of concrete structures, poster removal, etc.

lol! i read in the star that ford would support building a sheppard east LRT if it was completely underground. wtf is the point of that? some sort of twisted show of willingness to compromise?

it's 1897. what did you expect? plasma TVs? wireless routers? playstations? iphones? bluray players? in 1897, if you got sachet powder for christmas, that was as good as an ipod. ;)

LOL enviro! i think the car tax made the most sense. the money from it would go to public transportation projects which would have a direct benefit to drivers. increasing the price of water and garbage fees punishes the most economically vulnerable such as the elderly and the disabled. for...

i don't know if that would be a good idea. i could see a scenario where two people work together, one guy tags, the other reports it, all to make the reward money. there are people who wouldn't care about racking up fines in the hundreds of thousands if it meant having tens of thousands of...

just a thought, could this be backup housing in case of a war?
