We need you!!!.... to help prevent spam.

**jonathan180iq** · 06-07-2011, 02:32 PM

As a community, we are facing a common enemy. And as a community, it is our job... Neigh! It is our duty and our pleasure to rise up against this common foe and squelch him and his minions.

I know what you're thinking.
"I'm just a lowly forum member. How can I help?"

I'm glad you asked.

If you see Spam posts or anything that looks suspicious, post a simple reply in that thread with the word "SPAM" in bold letters.
That way, when moderators or administrators log-in, they can do a simple daily search for those words and delete them on site.

Patrick and Dupo have done a good job of handling these things in the past and have recently delegated some clean-up authority to a few others to help deal with this issue. If we combine our efforts, I know we can push back the frontal assault of the almighty Spam-bot and help keep this forum clear of his cancerous spewings.

Thanks, fellas (and a few ladies).
-Jonathan

There is also a little ! in a box on the lower right that you can report the post to a moderator too. That will help just as much. Those reported posts go into a special queue that is easily watched...

Cool little !. Now if we could just ahold of our elected representative that easily. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Got two more new ones off this morning. Got up early so I can clean and you other guys don't have to see that crap.

Couple of the fellas followed suit today and tagged a "SPAM" post. I found it via their post and it was swiftly struck down.
Well done, boys. You know who you are.
