Logged In & Hidden

Hey Bryan,
How come everytime I log in, it said I'm "Hidden"

. I check the box.
It really does not matter as long as I can post, I would not think. Unless I get ran off

Hi 9-ball. As long as I can remember, you have been 'hidden' i.e. your name does not appear as on board, but I know you are there because of your postings. It must have something to do with your membership settings. Or maybe you have some sort of stealth technology unbeknownst to me.

Oh striped one...

Check your Profile, under Preferences, and see what what it says about your online status.
Or you may be related to the Invisible Man.

Hi 9ball,

If you click on the profile link at the top o' the page, there is a place under preferences that reads...
"Hide your online status:" and you can select yes or no to the right of that.

If you change that to no, then hit submit, you will be exposed when you make your appearances.

Morning 9ball. How are you today? I thought maybe you had some sort of cloaking device

Good morning Smiling-Knife

,
Above ground and not in any hospital, so I am doing great

I hope you are doing fine also.

I was hoping I had a "cloaking device".

Some clown got my back-up eBay email address and he has been wanting me to log in on a fake eBay site to "Re-enter" my credit card number. I have been workin' this fool about 4 days now

. I have already reported it to eBay, maybe I will put the Double Whammy on him today.

Busted Up Cow Girl will be proud of me

I checked the item number and it has been cancelled.

Did anybody hear about the Preacher's wife who shot him in the back with a 12 guage here in 10 E C a couple of weeks ago?
I heard she had fell for one of these scams, that is what they were fighting over.

Hi 9ball. That message doesn't even make sense. You would think that if they are going to attempt to scam someone they would at least make it sound legit.

s-k

p.s., I have trouble with gas/electricity salesmen (no women so far) ringing my bell during the day hoping to convince me to change my supplier. I live on the third floor of a building with no elevator. Rather than state their name and say 'I am here to read your meter' as the legit employees do, the sales people tend to announce 'gas and electricity'. I push the button to let them in and invite them up. They climb the stairs to the top with the hopes of a sale and then I say 'sorry not interested'. I thought his one guy last week was going to have a heart attack. Too cruel?: evil: s-k

I know, that the first clue that it is a scam.
I spend a lot on time on the PayPal Board on eBay and the scams I hear about & see there are getting better and better. I saw one someone posted that looked almost identical to PayPal's home page.
Luckily, the email software I use doesnot display any graphics.

I do not think so. They will start telling the truth sooner or later.
