Thumbs up spammers

i just wanted to give a big thank you to all of you.

i do my best to look at every single post that is made here on the site. that can be tough to do. i really rely on the users to catch a lot of iffy things.

i have been a lot of reporting going on and i thank you.

it helps keep this forum a family oriented place. keep up the great work!

Wow. I hadnt really noticed a lot of spam on this forum. But then I only wander in from time to time, so I probably miss most of it. Good job catching them though.

yep, we ban them and move their post to a spot labeled spam. It helps us keep an eye on spam activities, rather than deleting/forgetting about the posts.

I am glad to know that there is someone keeping the spammers out. I have left forums because of spam.
