Me too. How hard is it to do this? I checked out his website and found out it was all fake hemp. If I was making a movie and needed something to look real, I could see a need.But, I wondered when we would start to get spammed...

But Fake? Just like someone to start selling lookalike pharmaceuticals. Think it will do well? lol...What a joke..

Yeah I got it too, and started a thread in 'Rumour Mill'

Synthetic hash eh, what the fuck?

The URL when sending a PM contains user number, not user name.

So I suppose you'd write a script to go to URL with user number 1 (paste > send) then URL with user number 2 (paste > send) ... user number 25000 (paste > send)


disclaimer: I know nothing at all about scripting and spamming, but that'll be how it's done I suppose.

Fix it by adding one of those same 'type the letters you see in this picture' things when sending PMs, like we have to do when logging in?

Or just charge 0.01 BTC for a sender without feedback who sends a message to any Silk Road user who is also without feedback and has not received a message from the recipient.

Yeah, let's ban spammers. No warning, no second chances.

On a related note, what do you guys think about sellers sending messages to previous buyers notifying about new products? GreenCo has new strains up and is adding 2 more later this week. They know some customers would like to try the new stuff but they are afraid of being too spammy. I infrequent mellow advertising ok or should they avoid it?

I think mellow advertising will be OK.  It will allow us customers to know what is going to be available in a convenient way. Personally, something will fall on my spammy list if I received PMs from a seller that I never ordered from or the frequency of sent  messages where high. Something like once a week or every 2 weeks is reasonable.
