They're in sambucus's signature so show up in all his/her posts.  Just hope Dan picks up quickly.

Edited to add, Dan removed an offensive post by sambucus last week and put him/her on moderation.  I suspect there's a connection here......

Sambucus just visited and removed the signature.

Edited to add:
Well, they're obviously a bit of a sicko wanting to have a little game in revenge.  It might be best to hit the ignore button until Dan sorts it out.

It appears the pictures have been changed rather than removed, I wouldn't advise verifying that yourself.
Sambucus appears to be one of those individuals with a seriously warped mind who spends too much time on sites like 4chan or encyclopaedia dramatica.

I thought at first that the site must have been hacked, but it is indeed the signature of that individual.  It's possible that their account has been hacked, but if it's deliberate then they should be banned, no question.  >:(

I'm not giving them the benefit of the dount, or looking either... not even going to "ignore" as I presume  would have to see the stuff..  :o

You can ignore without viewing the images.
Go to your profile (button at the top of the site) then click on 'Ignore user options' (on the left) type sambucus into the ignorelist & press change profile. You will then no longer see either the posts or more importantly the signature from sambucus.

Don't forget that it's the school holidays...the little tinkers will probably appear every now and again for the next few weeks.

Of course I had to look, didn't I? That is so sick and the quicker that post is removed and the person responsible, the better!

As Sambucus is the name for "Elder" I'm not sure we are dealing with a naughty schoolboy..  :-X

In the meantime add 'sassymesclunsalad' to your ignore list, and don't click on the link in their 'swaps 'post.   ::) (Concealed link to encyclopedia dramatica.)

Just looked at the site for free seeds and it's more of the same.  Have reported it.  This is sick, one for reporting to the police!

He's putting comments with misleading links to extremely nasty pictures on various threads!

I agree with Fork that more than one moderator is needed to be able deal with these quickly!
