Come on....let's get serious about spam! - Kat999 - 08-03-2011
I pulled up the "new" posts today....an entire page of them....problem is...they are all spam. I'm so sick of this....this forum is becoming a pain instead of a pleasure.....DO SOMETHING!

I have unsubscribed from the mailing list because of all the crap I was receiving.
It is a joke, there are now about 3 pages of Spam!
I know it must be a nightmare for Admins but have they just given up now?
This is the worst forum I have seen for Spam and it could be managed better I don't see it get this bad on other forums and I know filters can be put in to place to reduce it.
Edit : Its more like at least 8 pages and looking at random spammers they are not being banned. Somebody needs to get a handle on this before they lose loyal customers, I only come on here now if I absolutely have to.

If you would help by reporting the offending posts, it would help us tremendously.

We have some new tools that we are using to slow down the spam. It is not perfect, but better than what we had.
If you see a spam post, please report it so that it can be handled quickly.
Thanks

Thanks for noticing.
Please report spam that gets by and it will be eliminated ASAP.
