I noticed in the Perth

I noticed in the Perth Auditions section of the Prompt Copy that there is an ad in broken English for 'Beijing Big Boobs' on there listed - not once but twice. Does the Prompt copy have some kind of provision for screening this kind of advertising or not?

Can you tell me what issue?

Can you tell me what issue? Whoops! No you can't! Why? I've never even heard of that show.. or that audition. If you can point me to the audition - my apologies... I've never double-posted in one issue in the past three years (3 years X 4 weeks X 1 issue per week = a lot of issues!)

Big boobs part deux

Na, Click or paste the link below and then scroll down. It is listed twice - one is listed with a site called jug f**kers and another called big boobs. It must be some porn spam link or something. Haven't tried clicking to find out as I'm at work and if I link on any of these and get caught, I'm 'jug f**ked' as well! http://australian-theatre-swicki.eurekster.com/acting+auditions+perth/

Off the menu

I think you will find that this is not a part of the Prompt Copy publication but a part of a search engine facility. These are note postings by NA in person. Completely different issue. Still a problem, but not what Na was initially discussing....

Right, then it's not

Right, then it's not actually part of my content. The swicki is like a Google - the info I get from the swicki is out of my control. However, if you want to get rid of the link, all you have to do is delete it on the right hand side... I can't actually do anything more than block a few sites from listing in the swicki. In some cases, I can't even delete them (I think it's something to do with sponsored advertising). I will check it out and delete it if I can.

Ba-leted

The site's been removed from the search. If you do find anymore stupid things listed like that, then please feel free to delete the listing yourself by rolling over the grey area to the right of the listing, and clicking on 'delete this page' or 'delete this site'.

A good thing too...

Yeh it can be a bit a off a problem having off site links like this. I used to work for a political party and one of my tasks was to go to political opponents websites and check their search engine and other links for any links to porn or gambling sites. If you're two clicks away from those you can imagine their embarrassment.

Checks

Yes, I try to delete the bad sites, but unfortunately too much to do, not enough time to do it. Once TPC is upgraded and I'm working on it more full-time it will get better.
