I hate the rise of tipping .
I do tip for good service but it's gets more and more .
We will end up like América who expect tips for everything

Quote from: dextrous63 on Yesterday at 07:50:32 PMPity Damian Hirst wasn't involved.  It'd be a real talking point to have a tank full of formaldehyde with a dissected King Charles floating in it.
:upvote:  As a Republican I have to agree.

Or since he's a King Charles just his head would do.

Mr Wilson liked to brag about his new electric car
Only costs £5 a charge he says but never says how far
He only drives it round the block
And occasionally to the shops
He's something of a celeb in his local Spar.

Quote from: GrannyMac on Today at 05:03:25 AMWell done for even knowing what that means klondike! I'm in awe.
It's only necessary to be aware of the basics. Google points to where you can crib the detail.

Just saw your recovery today. Wondering it its worth getting up  :sad:

There are far less legitimate bots than that one out there. The Internet is pretty much the wild west.

Quote from: GrannyMac on Yesterday at 06:20:47 PMWe are the pensioners, we were the core of PF for years til it all went a bit pear shaped.  We need the footfall here.
Quote from: Vlad on Yesterday at 07:07:50 PMHi again GM, I don't have any problems with PF although there are a number of twonks on there that I have blocked but all in all I am ok with it.
I can't remember if I'm a pensioner or a twonk.. I'm sure someone will remind me..

Quote from: klondike on Yesterday at 08:53:52 PMTo the callow youths (as the tossers looking after the Amazon bot almost certainly are) anybody over 30 would be regarded as geriatric.

It's still hammering away but sending an immediate 403 (forbidden) requires far less resource than running a php script to create a forum page from the database. I've set it to allow the robots.txt file regardless now so if they read that and obey the directive to sod off then even the load generating 403s will be removed too.
I can't see how these are legal, it's akin to spamming.
