Anyone else getting 'hacking attempt' when starting a new topic ?

I've tried twice in 'Chat and News'....... "Hacking Attempt" has come up both times. :-\

Phil, I just encountered this myself a few days back. Maybe we should leave this topic here as a reminder.

Techno

We certainly can, Atte. :)

I'd forgotten ALL about the problems with apostrophes in the subject title....It's been quite a while since it cropped up.
Goodness knows what suddenly made me think of it.

It DOES occur up from time to time.....But fairly infrequently....So I'll probably have forgotten by the next time it happens. ;D ;D ;D

Cheers - Phil.

It's that, and the sheer number of things I'm having to remember, sort out & do, at the mo' ! X_X

Had one of those a week or two ago.....Bit of an obvious one as I don't use Amazon Prime. ;D

(The irony of that, is that I went to check on Amazon to see whether they sold the two of the new flavours of crisps that I'm totally addicted to.....They did !! WooHoo...Won't have to wait until the shops get them in again, locally...(usually at least a month's wait)..Just about about to order 10 packets of each, and then noticed that only Amazon Prime customers can order them.
PANTS !!  :'( :'( :'(

Cheers - Phil

Time to explain to our US friends that "crisps" are what "potato chips" are called in English.

The one American-ism it took me ages to work out was "jelly". You'd see kids on TV programmes asking for peanut butter & jelly sandwiches,and I'm thinking "Eh??". It was only when I saw some TV cops eating "jelly doughnuts" it twigged - in America jelly == jam!

Still have no idea what they call real jelly mind . . .

Jell-o (but note English does in fact recognise things like quince jelly, redcurrant jelly, mint jelly, and apple jelly at least).

And they largely preserved it, while you lot mangled the pronounciation.

While you merely misspelled the pronunciation!  ;)
