SPAM
Posted: Thu Aug 24, 2006 4:13 pm
Because life happens, Hazel and Lynne are both away from the board for awhile. That leaves only me to moderate. I can't be on the board 24/7, so some spam posts will get through. I promise I will get them - it just may take a little time. Please just ignore them. Although it is much better than it was, we still remove up to 10 posts a day. Hopefully most of you don't see them, or at least all of them, lol!
So, please hang in there with me until my much-needed and much-loved mods get back to being with us.
Oh, no offense intended - if you do make a post in response to them, I will delete your post when I delete theirs - otherwise it doesn't make any sense!
Edited to add: I also just changed how people register. Many spammers still register and become members. While we can delete them, it's still time consuming and tedious. I just required each person to register to respond to an auto email before the registration process is complete. I hope this will help eliminate at least a few more of the ones we are getting.
