Basically, anything over 8/10 and you are either a PUBDEVCONMOD or a spammer.

Oh and just to confuse us even more, they've* now taken it away!

Oh, this is clearly official! Because whenever I apply for a college course or medical certificate they send a letter to me with abbreviated words and put letters in capital so as to calm me down and not give me the impression they're panicking. Because you know, if my doctor sent me a letter saying:

I have SUM NEWS for u

I would not be worried in the slightest, well unless you count the fact he possibly never even attended primary school and has the IQ of a chimp.

GTFO.

I'm just trying to find out if Soucy fell for it, or if he was trying to spread the "good word" around.

lol some people are stupid.

How would adding a contact give you a virus. Sheesh, people really need to learn about internet security.
I've had 3 people on xfire spam me this message and it's just getting annoying, it's just as gay as those myspace bulletins "Repost this or you will be lonely for the rest of your life"

uhh dude that was started most likely as a prank by one of his friends, but i got the message to in AIM and MSN, and Yahoo, and sadly MySpace,

They cannot delted your hard drive unless you DL something!!!!

dude you should have sent me this, i would have told you before you posted

Red Halibut · Post by **Red Halibut** » 2007-08-15 20:06

Another Spammer!

Look guys, this is a hoax. The only thing I've seen in XFire is the Message bomb, which spams loads of PMs to you. Also, don't click those little messages at the top, the banner ads, there are documented cases of them diverting you to a website with a trojan.

You have much to learn about the internets and computers Soucy
