Topic: Covert messages on Chordie?

Hi every one I might be becoming a bit of a conspiracy theorist here but .I get a few warning bells ringing with the constant spam on chordie since normal conversation about songs an music has become much less.Could it be certain undesirables  are using the forum for covert messaging as often it seems
like gobble de gook then another new user pops up and responds .

Re: Covert messages on Chordie?

You could be on to something here Graham, it could mean serious consequences and I've often wondered why people would post nonsense replies, unless as you say there is some coded message hidden so the authorities don't suspect? The moderators need to be more diligent and ban and remove these idiot posts ASAP.     

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: Covert messages on Chordie?

I remember as a kid my dad gave me an important job, to tune the shortwave to a particular frequency at a certain time and write down the numbers that were broadcast. Many years later I found out that it was a code that he would suss out later and it was a status report that would let us know if we needed to evacuate or somesuch. I think you can still tune into those "numbers stations". It was during the "cold war" and dad was employed by CIA, we were in the middle east.

So... conspiricies aside, you may be right.!!

Maybe the Admins might be better to check them out, it's hard to know isn't it.  As for conspiracy, nothing like a bit of conspiracy theory to follow and check out big_smile

Who spoke to you about the gobble de gook Grah1! And who else besides the whole chordie community have you talked to of said gobble de gook if there ever really was any gobble de gook per say to talk of?     

Forgive your enemies, but always remember their names!

Re: Covert messages on Chordie?
