You inspired me to finally try Google Voice. I don't think I can ever go back.

Just don't let me inspire you to try the other online service listed in this thread.  ;)

Did they typo your number or is this a great practical joke? And why can't you put your number on here, we may text you, but it wouldn't be for... that.

It's not a number I actually use.  It's my phone's real phone number, but I give everyone my google voice number.  I don't actually even have the number memorized. 

So if it's not a typo, I'm sure I'm the victim of a random number generator, or it's the profile of the previous owner of the number.  I've had the number for just under a year and I've just stopped getting "Happy <Holiday>!" voicemails from people I don't know.

I understand you might wish to solve the problem without visiting the site in question, but the easiest way would probably be to contact the site admin through their contact page and request they remove the post.

I think I did go to the site to see if there were any contact options on the front page.  It was a month ago, so I might be making that up.  If I did go, there wasn't anything in front of the green door, so to speak.

Apologies for the content of this post.

So... I have this problem I can't seem to solve on my own.

You know that online site that's f-something-something-something-book but not facebook?  Well, apparently someone has used my cell phone number on a posting of some hot chick and I get weekly texts from sweaty dudes who want to...  well...

I've googled how to get my number off of there but so far, any google with that sitename in it takes me to a variety of places that are... unhelpful.

Does anyone have any good ideas?  Anyone a member and can maybe submit a case for me?  Can you search by phone number?  Probably not.

If you can help, PM me and I will send the phone number in question.  I'd just post it here, but I know what you jokers would do with it.  ;)

So far I've just been ignoring the texts- hoping they'd go away, but some of these guys are... persistant.

Ultimate Spider-Man

It's got nothing on Spectacular. Why they have saddled the webslinger with Nick Fury and bunch of nobodies is a mystery to me. A very large part of the character's appeal to me is that he is a young hero that has to make hard choices on his own. We've already got The Avengers - Earth's Mightiest Heroes for a Marvel team-up cartoon (which by the way is excellent).

Bring back Spetacular

Spectacular

Spider-Man

Spectacular.....

Hell yeah!  Sherlock is simply amazing.  I'm particularly happy with what they did with Moriarty - I was wary of his characterization in Series 1, but after Series 2 I wouldn't have had him any other way.

"People have died!" "That's what people DO!"

Is this the thread where people spoilerificaly discuss the ending to Series 2 of Sherlock?

Wait... You mean you haven't seen season 2 of Sherlock???

Actually, I have.  I wanted to discuss (spoilerificaly) the ending.

IGNORED!!!

Hey...

Dead Island

 It is honestly probably my favorite title released in the last couple of years, and definitely the best co-op game I've played since Borderlands, regardless of its flaws.

 Have it.  Just have to finish the Borderlands expansions with my NY co-op buddy (formerly zombiefriend).

Speaking of the which, how the heck did you get those uber-hard collect achievements on Claptrap's Robolution?  I've had no luck getting the rare items and I've read online that it's quite a beast.

Holy Crap! Finally a list of site members I'm included on!!

 

This is what it must feel like to be Prom King, President, and Intercontinental Champion all rolled into one!!!!

Well... it was a very long list.

However, if you went and saw John Carter, you could be on a pretty short list of my bestest friends.  (It would be you, Tobar, and my wife).
