Same old story.

We need to sign up to http://stopforumspam.com and have more moderators. I've cleaned up my sections but I can't do anything about the rest.

The trouble is I don't think mixos wants to trust too many people, after our experience with the bulling moderator. I wouldn't mind moderating more sections but the putting one person in charge of the whole forum requires a lot of trust.

Please ask on the open forum if you have a question: if I know the answer, I'll be happy to help.

I agree Audio Guru.  I've reported several of these as they've appeared, but the last I saw was so prolific it was more effort to report all of them than it was worth.  Is there anything I can do to help?

Horray! The spamming druggie is gone.
The spammer clogged the New Topics listing so I nearly went away, never to return.

It has happened many times before and will probably happen many times again because this website doen't use the methods to ban SPAM like all the other electronics chat websites have.

mixos has made me global moderator to help to stop this from happening again.

Unfortunately I can't ban so I'll be sending him links to spam accounts via private message.

I trust that he has also taken my suggestion to sign up to stopforumspam.com on board.
