I got myself banned from Ducatimonster.org (DML) when it changed hands, I didn't like the sudden proliferation of intrusive adds and the pompous attitude etc.
So now they're sending me advertising newsletters, I'm not allowed to unsubscribe - I've been banned. Catch 22.
Apologies for revisiting this issue but if anyone remembers how irritating it was at the time and could put me on the right track, I could use a hand to shake off these unwelcome attentions.


Ahh! Summer changes everything. BARMAN!

It is an odd forum, too much spam and next to no moderation.  I really like to make the beast with two backs but I don't need to read the same four letter all the time.  Also not family oriented as they allow boobie pics.   Don't get me wrong I love boobies but I prefer to click on them rather than have then shoved at me.

Seen a couple of other sites out there running capchas that incorporate video ads.  Way to gobble bandwidth......
Two things I don't do.  Keyboard bullies and hypocrites.
Feel free to PM me if needed, otherwise you will find me elsewhere.

when I first got my duc that was the first site I joined, took me about 2 days to see what a POS it was, glad I made it over here  [beer]
