... Don't know if anyone else has noticed but someone keeps registering on OOF usually says he/she has a Mini Cooper on his/her profile posting threads with links that take you to god knows where and even though the posts get deleted quickly he/she keeps coming for more ???

Spammers ::) nothing new, just press the report button and the security pixies come along and nuke them :y

Its not one person, but thousands of robots from across the globe.
We delete far more than you ever see, and they constantly evolve.
A few get as far as posting, but as you see, they rarely last long.
Your best not to comment on them, as it just makes them more popular to google, and more likely to be indexed boosting their rankings.
Please, just one click of alert mod, and ignore them :y

in a crowded city traffic even a half powered cooper will leave you in dust..

Doubt it, as you can only go as fast as the car in front of you in traffic ;D

The Mini Cooper is a hairdresser's car. Nobody on here would own such a car. :)

Many years ago when I was thinking of taking up hairdressing (decided against it as my degree is in polymer technology), I did indeed own a Mini Cooper "S" - it was a 1293cc example, running either 2 twin choke webers, or sometimes 4 amals, on a cross flow head, with twin pot calipers etc etc. Not very well appointed or comfortable inside, but nice drivers seat (passengers had to stand or sit on the floor) with full harness - went rather well round race tracks though ;)
And definately not gay - thats for poofters ;D ;D
-
Funnily enough in the car park behind my flat, there is a Mini Cooper Estate thing, a diesel & automatic ::)
They cannot park it to save their life, its always, very, very badly parked! ::)
-
Its the roof line that just dont look right ::)
Just looks like its been flattened :(

Son's wife has the Cooper S convertible - few issues but we get by with independent garage which keeps costs down. Run flat tyres have been a problem

small cars are not gay.. they are practical and fuel efficient..

Which makes them double gay with a helping of gay sauce ::)

small cars can also be comfortable on long distances unless you pack "n" peoples inside..

Small cars are lightly and cheaply made from flimsy materials.
If the body work and seats of your clit were as solid as an Omegas, then it would be gutless and thirsty and only have room for two proper people ::)

all wrong assumptions ..
omega is approx 490 cms and clit 377 cms
small cars can also be robust like the big models .. mine has 4 star ncap.. but still cant protect you from everything like omega..

What about seat width, seat height, roof height, seat adjustability etc etc etc ... ???
When the Omega was poorly and I was against the clock to fix it .. the alternative option for the 10 hour drive was NEVER the clit ... but a much larger hire car. 10 hours in the clit and I would have needed the firebrigade to take the roof off in order to get out !!!
There is a reason for large, comfortable, well made Omegas..... and the clit will never ever compete with it... :)

Entwood, comparing clit and omega is pointless.. but I can say 2-3 persons can travel long hours comfortably inside it.. because I tried it..

You must all be very short :o

Must be ::) ;D Around 6ft/1 myself

6 ft ::)

Do they come in size 13?
-
driven a clit, typical FWD box. Biggest issue for me was how close the pedals are together & generally very little space up front.
I'm 6ft5 myself, love the Omegas driving position, room, arm rests. Similar to Entwood's issues above, Mother & FatherT had a week up in the dales taking the dogs, hot weather at the time the Estate and the Nissan had the only working Air-con.
A FWD box was never an option for a long drive, hence I had to get the Estate fixed.
Had various FWD sh!t boxes on hire too, brand new examples, about the best so far surprisingly was the Mitsubishi Colt :o
Had it a couple of years ago, it was one of the few FWD cars which I could not drive with my knee's ::) ;D

Remember that ncap ratings are, sadly, flawed. It is only a valid comparison for comparing 2 cars from the same class.
A 2 star exec saloon is likely to protect occupants better than a 5 star supermini car. Trouble is, consumers don't understand this, and the manufacturers don't like to make it too well known as its a great marketing tool.

He's back,lol,and nobody loves him lmfao

He never goes away. We bin at least 4 or 5 minimum each day, mostly before any postings are made.
:y

How should we as members deal with them?
Did I see Jimbob post they should be completely ignored, by not replying etc...?
-
Give him so magic trees lol

The vast majority are spambots who do not reread the thread they started or posted into and rely on folks clicking on the links embedded in their posts.
In fairness, minidik always posts 'car' as a mini variant and so easier to spot from an admin perspective. Usernames generally have upper case characters scattered like a mad dogs poo throughout the username. They also like to use any and all ways to get links posted and so have all the contact icons activated in their profile.
When I see them on the several visits I have here each day I simply ban them out of hand, irrespective of whether they posted or not.
It's also interesting to see their location as USA somewhere, ip as Far East/china and email as Poland, Russia or whatever. Those ones get binned out of hand as well!
As to replying or not? Would suggest not replying or pressing the clipe button. We will get them in any event. ;)

Wasn't there 2 different accounts last night that made 2 threads by "Mini Cooper Person Bot" again :o Persistent little so and so's aren't they..

If you see spam, please just click the "grass" button on the post concerned and it will direct a member of the admin team straight to the post concerned. I did have a quick look after seeing this thread last night but at that time didn't notice it and hadn't received the alert.
I can now see that the post was reported; thanks for that. I guess the e-mail was a little slow at reaching me. :-[
