Q: Captchas not working?

Tried to report several threads for the usual spamming over the past few days. Captchas are not visible. Is this happening to anyone else?

You must hit 'abuse' button to see captcha, I guess.

I don't know if it's working, 'cause I never hit 'abuse' since I'm here.

 

You could c&p thread's weblink with your complaint comment to 'Contact Us' instead 'abuse' button.

Ha! The "Contact Us" link led to...

Ohh  yeah, I forgot! Phil suggested 'Contact Us' few days ago, and I tried and saw that blank page.

Maybe you could have look where 'Admin' was posting, and send him PM. There was thread (some 4 pages back) about redeem points something. Admin posted reply there.

Look if you have any posts of Admin in your message folder (like I do), and send him c&p message as PM.

If you don't have it, you can try and send message through mine:

 

http://answers.echinacities.com/user/88440/messages/inbox/28776

You can use mine, just load him up through there......

Sinobear:

It would be much simpler if: the damn "features" of the site worked like they're supposed to; and, if the damn admin worked like it's supposed to

Hello Guys,

 

We will look into the problems you reported.  Thanks,

 

Admin Cat

sorrel:

does that mean you are going to do something about trolls who:

post on topics that have nothing to do with China

Post with suggestions about killing Chinese people (now changed to 'punching' I see)

ScotsAlan:

Sorrel. The killing Chinese post was changed at my suggestion.

 

I think, rather than depend on a senior power to defend our rights, self moderation more suits the message we "free" people are trying to convey.

 

We need to educate, not ostracize.

 

Banning people because we do not agree with them sends the wrong message.

 

Even the spam can be fun. It quickly falls down the rungs of attention into oblivion.

I don't get it why we can't talk between us about 'open teaching position'? Spam? I posted once, for one (good) position at my School. 

How could I get that out differently? Posting on Jobs tag?

Why would I do that, if we talk here about many other things concerning China? 

However, I got reply from FT (couple), and that made me happy!

ScotsAlan:

Good point icnif.

 

If one of us know a job, we should be allowed to ask if anyone is interested.

 

The spamming agents are in too much of a rust to get a result. They do a few posts then start spamming. The frequent posters should be allowed to tell other people of possible opportunities. It is supposed to be a sort of networking site after all.

@ScotsAlan,

 

TBH when a new poster arrives online and begins by making vague unsubstantiated allegations of racism against other posters, does not answer a direct question until pressed and then only answers when someone else points out the holes in his/her comments, and then posts a 'question' inciting people to agree with his/her desire to kill Chinese people: i think the last one qualifies for the term 'troll'.

 

There has been enough trolling on this site since the start of the year to detect the BS.

@sorrel

 

Is your venting more worthy than his.

 

Are you making a judgement without a trial?

 

On a basic level, do you not believe him.

 

That is my key point. I trust people.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
