Thank you.

A new issue has occurred. The website is fine, but someone has written this on the homepage:
Quote:
My idea kids programme would be a live kids version of Man O Man called Boyz to Hunk, it would be hosted by Dick & Dom who would wear nothing but pair of Boyz to Hunk branded speedos.

In the final round, three boys would be in beefcake pads (mature word for nappies) and during their posing routine task with male bodybuilder (also in beefcake pads), they would have a wee and poo on the beefcake pads to insure if each boy won, the red dot graphic would be flashing on TV.

The winner would get the prize ticket in the sealed envelope which is a family week out to theme parks like Florida .

May I advise we set up an official homepage, and whoever did this to the homepage is banned for spamming our website.



Sounds like Paul Akinbola to me!

Dick & Dom in speedos?!! Surprised

Now I come to think of it, there was an individual on the Challenge TV page on Facebook two years ago (can't remember his name) who was spamming the pages with some bizzare ideas of gameshows in a manner very similar to what happened on Java TV, i.e each idea had something to do with underage kids pretending to be body builders/wearing speedos. Although given the nature of his posts (and the fact that he would repeat them about 5 times), it was clear he had a severe form of learning difficulties. The posts were very quickly taken down, and Challenge posted this in response:

It's definitely Paul Akinbola. He posted something similar here a few years back.

If he has an account, he should be banned.

^And if he doesn't, block his IP.

Which will probably do nothing.

(If he had a static IP, he wouldn't keep popping up all over the place)

I'd be happy to host Java TV on the TV Live hosting for free (I have unlimited hosting) if you're willing to do this. Get in touch.


The offer still stands if you're interested.

In continuation in our search for missing mocks, does anyone has an archive link for the mocks section of the old TV ARK Forum?

Looking at the forum link here, there was no separate mocks section.

However, the earlier Bravenet forum couldn't be crawled due to robots.txt, so maybe that's what you remember.

OK, does anyone have any mock, or know of any, from that version of the website?
