Hi all,

The site has been getting hit with some spammers that register and then try to post spam messages on the site. I've restricted a couple of domains that these kept coming from and deleted some user profiles from the system.

This also had led me to look at the number of people who registered and then never posted anything, so I've done some cleanup and will continue to monitor this.. Users who have registered and have NEVER posted anything will be deleted after 60 days.

Thanks!

Tom.

I more than appreciate this. A lot of this cr@p is starting to show up on a number of the other forums I paruse and it pi$$es me off that this stuff gets posted.

Junk mail, junk email, junk phone calls, junk posts.....enough already!

thanks!

Tom.

Good on ya Tom. I run forums of my own, so I know what a nightmare that spam stuff can be.
