How do we get people on here OPENLY selling stuff on nearly every forum? The posts don't make sense, seem as if they are translated from another language, and don't really have anything to do with the area they have posted in. Anyone else notice this today (Tuesday?) I read the site rules and this is not supposed to be happening.

Yup... noticed it here, and on another message board I follow.

Frustrating!

I am here working on our most prolific spammer yet 22 messages since they joined this morning at 3AM!

I try to get on first thing in the morning and most of the time I delete these before anyone sees them.

Sometimes spammers will post acceptable posts and not acceptable ones, then I e-mail and PM them to give them a chance.

If you EVER see anything you think I should know about just PM me the ADDRESS of the post (ex: http://www.acmoore.com/forum/yaf_postmessage.aspx?m=44687) and I will take care of it.

I am here almost everyday although I have been away recently for work.

I am happy to report that after 58 minutes I have located all 22 of the posts by THAT spammer and they have been removed. I do have another one I am searching out though. Rest assured I strive for this forum to be SPAM FREE.

Thanks AL, that really was quite annoying to infringe on our board in that manner, this isn't an advertising site!
