The longer this board exists the more spam will be posted here.
It'll get to be 40 or 50 spam posts a day- or more.
I commend Steve for taking on the job. I wouldn't want it and wouldn't have time for it on a daily basis.

I hope Sanger continues to control membership on an individual case basis rather than making it difficult for new members to join. Discussion boards wither and die without new blood. I wish some of the lurkers would join and chime in with their opinions.

Sure thing Dancer, I'll give you admin access, you can knock off the spammers early in the morning.

Looks like we are getting to be a bigger target, knocked off 7 today.

Wouldn't it be better to delete the whole thread and not just the spammer's post?

I don't look at the threads, I just check the latest sign up against know spam I.P.'s and ban them by I.P. then delete the user and any posts made.

If you see a tread that needs to be killed just PM me.

SS, I appreciate the work you do to make this a good place.

You'd think that the sign up process would block these SOBs.

What kind of success rate do these guys have? They are the modern door-to-door salesmen. What's the breaking point on doors to sales that makes it worth the trouble? It must be enough to keep it going - just like the Nigerian email scammers.
