Top 10 forum search terms
Just testing a theory here. I’m certain that these 10 items haven’t change in the time I’ve been contributing to forums. So I’ve taken a screenshot to see if they do actually change, or if it’s just a waste of real estate that could be put to much better use.

& here’s the 4th.
But, no matter which item you click on either list, you always get the same message:
Sorry, there are no results for that search term. -

I noticed something’s up with the RECENT FORUM ACTIVITY box. I’ve found that there are now four variants. Every thread on the forum has one of the four variants.
There’s the box in the OP, plus this one.

I also made a mistake of clicking on one of the adverts listed here, not in the products though, and now I am getting terrible spam all the time.
I think there is a real problem with the IT and advertising and lack of updating. Seems the longer we are members the more problems or issues that are irrelevant to the ‘beautyheaven’ site become noticed.
Also, the number of HORRIBLE SPAMMERS which seems to be a daily issue now. Even those that are not even in English. The IT team need to get moving and fix problems and bring the site up to date again.

Eeek, crap Am, really ruins the experience for you and reduces revenue for the legitimate advertisers who do rely on the trust that is earned between BH and its members.

Clearly the IT do not check legitimacy of any advertising offered and leave us BH members vulnerable to anyone who wants to advertise here so don`t do what I did MerryGoRound. I clicked on one of the `flashers` on the side and now have rubbish `offers` coming into my email, and had to disconnect my home phone too. Luckily I didn`t provide my mobile number.

OMG, that’s really OTT!!
The ad servers are usually outsourced, but that said they also should have an agreement (incl. service levels) in place with BH and if they are serving dodgy ads then they should be penalised.
Not that that helps the victims of the spammers.

Had a lovely Christmas Day, overindulged with champagne and prawns but it was relaxing. Boxing Day the family arrived and more food to eat, had a bbq but it was so windy, and didn`t see any of the Sydney to Hobart yachts go past as I think they were all too far out to sea because of the very strong winds. Today is as calm as can be, just the slightest wisp of a breeze. Hope you had a lovely Christmas too.

What sort of Ad did you click on Am? You mean like an online shopiong thing on the right side of our screens? The ones that keep flashing, and refreshing constantly? How are you getting the spam? You mean email?

Yes Shop A Everyday, I clicked on one of the `flashers` on the side, I think it was to become a tester shopper for aldi and then I started getting emails, and phone calls (on home phone -which I now don`t plug in), constantly, and the emails saying I won a car, phone, blah blah blah every day. So annoyed that this site accepted this type of advertising without even checking them out. grrr

On the old-look site, there was a box on the home page showing latest forum activity & it had been frozen on the same few entries for years!
I wonder what would happen if we all started typing Australis into the search box? I mention Australis because they’ve recently left Bh.
I’d never clicked onto any of those listed items before, but I also get a message when I clicked Sukin.

Yeah, they departed between me winning an Australis prize and it arriving in the post. No opportunity to review 🙁
I’ve just searched for Australis to see if we can get it to change. I suspect not though.

Haha, I hadn’t clicked them because I didn’t want to reinforce their position on the list. But I did just now ans get the same results as you. I think it’s just a waste of real estate.
