Spam?

Looks like we just got hit pretty hard by spam, I suggest we make it so that this forum's brand new registered members have to post a few times onto another thread before they can make their own.

Hahaha, maybe he meant to hit edit.

On topic though, I tried to clean up the spam that I could find, if you find more report it and the mods will jump on it right away.

war spam. j/k

i hope we don't have to go through that again. i've been a member since '05 but only really started getting involved right when we had our last attack of spam.

at least bryan is back to fight it off.

Yeah, we're trying our best to keep it down to a minimum--they did hit us and I thought it cleared up mostly, just a few here and there; but just report whatever comes your way. Thanks!!

Whenever you guys see the spam, look for this button

It's your best bet in getting rid of it... one of these days they'll hopefully just give up.

Just use the button Phil mentioned to help get rid of the spam. There is a verification process during registration but spammers have been getting smarter and are able to verify the registration. THey basically setup 100's of yahoo or hotmail or gmail addresses and keep revolving.
