jua miren el pm que me llego!

A man is trying a very unusual way to propose to his girlfriend. He wants people to forward an email to as many people as possible and he hopes that it will eventually get to his girlfriend. Details here: http://www.proposal-to-mary.com

Here is what he wants people to send by email:

You could help me a lot to spread my proposal to Mary – it is important that it is distributed as widely as possible so that it eventually reaches Mary. If you would like to support my proposal to Mary, please send the following text by email to a lot of people Smile

------------- SNIP (email text end) ---------------

WHEN YOU RECEIVE THIS, PLEASE HELP TO DISTRIBUTE IT TO OTHER PEOPLE!

For a long time I have tried to find a special way to propose marriage to my girlfriend Mary, whom I know for five years now. I wanted it very special, romantic and memorable, something our grandchildren would still remember.

And here is my idea: I will send out the proposal to Mary to 50 complete strangers, people I don't know - hoping, that they will forward my proposal to as many people as possible, which in turn forward it etc. And some day, I hope, it will reach Mary, after it has travelled a very long way. I know, it will take a long time and I am quite nervous…

From the poem MY Mary will know immediately that the proposal is for her.

I have created a homepage ( http://www.proposal-to-mary.com ) where you can find the current status of my quest. You can use the homepage to check if the proposal has already reached Mary (in that case it is not necessary anymore to forward the mail).

Once the proposal has reached Mary, I will put a note on these pages. Also I will publish there how many people have read the proposal so that everybody can see how far it has spread and that it is getting closer to Mary.

And of course you will find there what I am waiting for most: Mary's answer! I can't tell you, how nervous I am… Will she accept my proposal? Will she like the unusual way how she got it, through the hands of thousands of messengers all over the world?

Please cross your fingers for me! And please - help me by sending the mail to as many people as possible, to help it spread, so that it eventually reaches Mary.

And here is my proposal:

Mary, please forgive me, as you know English is not my native language. And I am not a poet. But I mean it from my heart.

My angel,

Five years ago, I will always remember the day When fate made us meet, blissful Alaskan moments in May Earth spun around us and a journey began Love, warmth, happiness, enough the years to span.

The longer it lasts the more grows our bond And with 80 still - of you I will be fond Whatever happens, I will stay at your side Through good and bad, together let us stride

No second with you was ever wasted
You are the sweetest I have ever tasted
We have spent so many years - why not a life?
Mary, will you marry me - and become my wife?

Mary, if you have received that and have recognized me, then give me a sign so that I can continue with the romantic part of my proposal…

No se puede habilitar para confirmar por mail? Solucionaria muchos problemas.

si pero les darias mas trabajo a los moderadores o a lio , y menos gente seguro se registra , por q vos entras a buscar algo y queres hablar tal ves en el momento , y si tenes q esperar una confirmacion desanimas a la gente

??? No te parece que da mas trabajo ir borrando y banneando a cada bot que aparece? Cada dia que te levantas hay 2 o 3 threads en Demas de un Bot, no te parece trabajo bannear y borrar threads? ...

otra opcion seria q cada nuevo usuario tenga q ser aprobado por los moredadores antes de poder finalizar su registracion.

si pero la idea es q los usuarios se registren y participen en el momento , sino no se registran pasean y ya , si tenes q esperar repito pierden interes , y es mas facil borrar 2 o 3 usuarios por spams

No una habilitacion por mail no es mas laburo.. o sea, no es q nosotros tenemos q mandar cada mail... De hecho, creo q esta activado eso de la confirmacion, pero no es la solucion a nada jejejjeje ya te digo, los pornobots se ponen cada vez mas persistentes

Lo de confirmacion por email es lo mas humano, no creo que eso aleje users, es algo que esta en todo foro. Ademas mucha diferencia no hay, con los que entran a saludar y no vuelven mas y los que se vuelven usuarios activos. Lo de la confirmacion por parte del Staff no me parece muy buena idea, les daria demasiado trabajo.

habria que ver de implementar alguno de los plugins para phpbb para control de spam, como esos que te preguntan algo onda "cuanto es 2 + 2" y preguntas aleatorias asi, o el de la imagen con numeros y letras.
