Can the people posting spam be banned from the forum? please clean it up is a mess :(
I agree. There's been a lot of it today!
Can we bump the nice threads by posting on them until the mods can block the spammer?
the spammer continues to post even now
we need a way to report users like these. The whole first page was spam treads. It took over 1 hour for the moderaters to react.
Edit: the moderaters have still not delt with the problem, the treads are stil there, just not on all of the first page
3 hour of spam now over 27 new treads created by the spammer and stil no moderaters in sight..........
Oops. Sorry about that.
Did some spring cleaning :o
I don't think banning the forum user's account does anything. All they do is make more disposable accounts, unless mods can get an IP ban in place, that might slow them down enough to deter them from harassing this particular forum.
There is a way to report these users. Click on the little box (kinda hard to see) in the left corner of the offensive thread to report the post. You may also PM the link of the thread to a mod to help them become aware of the thread.Quote:

Thanks- found it now :)
Wow, another crazy spam day. Why do people even do this? Or is it just like robo-calls for computers?
