| Posted: | | | | I opened a support ticket, so hopefully some attention will come and this Spam will get removed. I don't think there's any moderator monitoring this section of the forum now...for whatever reason. | | | Corey |

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Lewis_Prothero: Quote: It seems that some of the annoying threads got removed at last. I sent a long support ticket 4 hours prior to your post. That likely did it. In it, I mentioned the out-of-control spam, how it makes the regular community react, and I included this post as a possible solution. Ken gave a simple--and for me satisfactory--reply concerning both issues, and then this happens. It may be minimal and temporary (as it often is,) but every little bit counts. | | | If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.

| Posted: | | | | Wow, those damn spammers are getting smarter now.
Instead of posting the message themselves, they quote it from a not removed former posting and put some random text below. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up! But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| Posted: | | | | Ken could easily implement simple changes that would get rid of 99% the spammers on here. It works on other forums quite effectively. | | | Corey |
