Where do we go to check tombstones?

[entanglement]

1. Go here

}(

[DBoon]

2. Here

http://www.findagrave.com/

[lonestarnot]

9. LOL

[achtung_circus]

3. No where.

If you want to check an individual's status you can search their posts and click on their icon, but there is no list of tombstoned former members.

I'd like one, with sign-up date, TS date, # of posts, but it's not a DU priority.

5. Search for her user profile

Sorry you were attacked. That sucks. :hug:

[lonestarnot]

7. Think it was a him....

:grouphug:

6. Go to her post, and click on the little 'head' icon next to her username.

That's the one for the profile. Even if they had 'disabled' their profile, it will show the tombstone if they have been tombstoned.

[lonestarnot]

8. Not tombstoned....did that.... freak damaging computer!

[Kingofalldems]

10. What was the thread?

n/t

[lonestarnot]

12. Here it is...

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

15. Maybe I didn't read it carefully enough but I didn't see where you were

attacked in that thread? :shrug:

[lonestarnot]

16. Not on the thread via verbalization, but when clicked on thread to respond

to a poster this one in particular, 1000 explorer windows opened.

And it happened not once but twice.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

18. Still confused. How can you know the poster was responsible for that?

Unless you were clicking a link in their profile or something. Explain please?

[lonestarnot]

19. Happened both times clicked on posts in two different threads!

[lonestarnot]

20. Did you click on all the posts in the thread? And if so did you have any

difficulty?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

21. No I always just 'view all'.

[lonestarnot]

23. I am guilty of trying to respond to posters that respond to me out of

courtesy... intend to be more careful, but we shouldn't have to put up with that kind of crap!

[lonestarnot]

24. Well don't click on that one...don't know why mods haven't removed it.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

27. Did you not have this problem replying to anyone else's posts, like

mine?

I don't even know how you could 'booby trap' a post to cause this but I'm not too web savvy.

[City Lights]

25. I went to respond to that post and the normal post window opened.

:shrug:

[lonestarnot]

29. Nope 12 was my post....

[City Lights]

32. Yup, I know which one you meant.

The post a message window opened fine for me. :shrug:

Twice. This time I actually replied to it without a problem. Again, :shrug:

[lonestarnot]

34. Beats me.... Not going to let them disuade me from posting organization

against the bushitler!

[City Lights]

36. I actually clicked "Reply" on every post you responded to in that

thread and didn't have any issues.

What happened to you is bizarre. :crazy:

[lonestarnot]

37. Yes bizarre!

:crazy:

[lonestarnot]

22. Mods alerted both times.

[TreasonousBastard]

30. Yes, we were. but..

we had no idea this is what you were talking about.

Frankly, it sounds more like a problem with your browser than anyone hacking you. It's tough to believe anyone could hack through the forum software just to attack your browser.

IE can be easily corrupted, and the hosts file can be played with-- have you tried another browser to see if the same problem occurs?

BTW, Bunny is right-- even if someone calls you out or says something rude or stupid, the rules say you can't answer in kind.

[lonestarnot]

33. I will be nice... Want to share my ball? It bounces just finely.

[A Simple Game]

26. Something was weird with that thread for me also.

This will just add to the confusion but earlier, for me that thread would not load past post #12. Loaded fine just a minute ago, but not earlier. Can't blame it on any other posters though. Thought it was my computer at the time, maybe not.

[lonestarnot]

28. Hmmmm will check to see if that was it but will not confirm or deny ....

[lonestarnot]

31. I can confirm because that was my post. LOL and it wasn't that one..

I would just stay clear of the thread. Don't want this to happen to you. Someone sure does not want any organization v. bushitler lies coming up this week.

[Liberal In Texas]

35. I do not believe it's possible for a post on DU to do that. You have

something else going on with your computer. Try a good virus scan. Also go to Windows Update http://update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us
to see if you have the latest security protection. If you are using XP, you should also have SP2.

If you're not running with a firewall, you should have that too. There are many free ones out there. Sygate is a pretty good one.

[lonestarnot]

38. Have firewall, virus scanner, spyware blah blah. still happened.

[Bunny]

11. Calling someone a bitch is an attack in itself.

[lonestarnot]

13. Counterattack...LOL

[Bunny]

14. Counterattacks are also a rules violation.

LOL

[lonestarnot]

17. Oooops ...
