Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

BOI Ad Search Function
This morning I was using the newly added BOI search button that can be found at the bottom of the ad, and it resulted in 'No Results' on the seller.
Come to find out in a deeper search, the seller did have a bad guy thread.
The problem was the OP spelled the name wrong (added a space between two words), however, I added the correct spelling when I inquired in a post. I went back and used the BOI button and the bad guy thread did not pop up even though the correct name was added to the thread. This is when I noticed the BOI button only searches thread titles. I switched it to search 'entire posts' and BAM, it popped up.
So my point is, what I have noticed since I've been here, is a lot of mistakes are made when a BOI thread is created and are often corrected in the following posts.
Would it be better to search the 'entire post' rather than 'titles only?' I understand this may cause additional threads that might not pertain to the person being searched, but it could surface details or unethical actions that this person may have been involved in within a thread not titled for them.
Just a suggestion.

My suggestion would be that people need to take their time and adequate care to spell the name of the person they are writing about within the BOI.
A search of every post within a thread would take a LOT longer to accomplish and put a much greater load on the server.
Sorry, but I'm not going to make everyone else suffer with site slowness (more than it is) by trying to make allowances for for others' lack of attention to detail.
Honestly, I would think that if someone were interested in posting in the BOI about someone, they would make darn sure they at least spelled the name correctly..... Otherwise the search engine spiders aren't going to pick up the correct name neither when someone else uses those sites to look for someone.
For legal reasons, staff cannot go back and edit the text for anyone.

I am probably guilty of a similar error, but when I tried to bring up a thread by clicking the BOI icon in a roach seller's ad today, nothing came up.
