Welcome to Gaia! ::


Beloved Nerd

Whens the last time you've received a PM where (obv) it's a user pretending to be an Admin, and asking for your password/username?
I haven't received one in awhile..But I did used to get a lot of those. I think it might have stopped sometime around the time that I stopped frequenting the CB...Maybe all the Admin imposters are just hanging around in forums like the CB?
OR it may have something to do with Gaia getting rid of accounts like that (that are automated...forgot the actual term for it...mods?) What I meant was "bots". Thanks Kiyoura!

Anyways, whens the last time that you received a password phishing PM like that? And what forums do you frequent?
Have you ever stopped frequenting a certain forum, and those password phishing PMs sort of disappeared?

Or maybe i haven't received those PMs in awhile cause people think I'm too poor emo

The word you're looking for is bots?

And it's been a long time since I've received one of those. Maybe it's because I look dirt-poor. x3

Or it's because I've been hanging around in the GCD exclusively nowadays.

I think the last time I got those type of PMs was last year?
It's probably because I'm in rally a lot, not just the forums. I spent most of my time in the GCD last year.
Yeah, I never get those anymore. It was pretty amusing how uninspired those bot account used to be, though. You'd think proper grammar would be a prerequisite for any serious effort.

No one will ever convince me you told a lie.

              It's been such a long time since I got a PM like that. Well it was more.. "i cn hlep u git a halo, jus giv mi ur pass". I was like "seriously?" Report/ignored. rofl
              Kinda felt bad, but not too bad. The account had minis so I thought they might have been hacked, then again it was their fault if they were.

The first time I got one was when I equipped a Cahs Shop Item for the first time, I guess whoever thought that meant I was rich rofl I was actually dirt broke after buying that. I got a few every now and then but I've had my PMs turned off for a while now so good luck sending them now XD
Actually one of the weirdest PMs I got was when I had an art shop, a girl asked for the exact same picture a costumer before her requested, she PMed me so I told her to fill out a form in my thread but she never did, I never found out what that was about :/
