I wish to offer a sincere apology to anyone who received a PM I'll refer to as the "Zenofeller" spam. I've patched a security hole in the default settings of vBulletin so that this kind of "attack" (on 50 users at most) can not be made again in the future.

Thanks for the update. I received the message, but was skeptical, so I checked the forums first to see if anyone else found it to be fishy...but seeing that you have it as spam confirmed my suspicions.

+1. I figured it out when I went to my PM inbox and the message didn't exist. You guys rock for catching it and resolving the issue.

I got the message. I actually went to the website. Would seem (from what the site says anyway) that its a person outside the "Zenofeller" site that has an issue with the owners of the site.
Apparently he goes around to random forums, signs up and spams people with the message we received with the hope that enough people will complain that some kind of action will be taken against the site.
Theres actually a link on the first page of the site that reads "if you came to this site by following a link from an unsolicited email please click here" or something to that effect. When you click that link it opens a page that explains the whole situation.
Either a really good way to spam people and try to cover your butt or it is actually someone doing it as per their story. Oh well.

Odd.

Not still waiting, no, and I won't ever be reviewing them for

http://thesandtrap.com/ . I'll type up my thoughts here for the forum in the spring after I've played with them, though, certainly.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
