Really!!!! This is becoming intolerable. I am starting to avoid the site due to the unsolicited spam we are getting.
I hope this gets blocked soon as it is extremely disappointing to have all this when one opens up a forum.

Re: IRRITATING ADS
I agree. Where are the Moderators? These Spam posts will kill this site, for me. Cheers!

Re: IRRITATING ADS
Before we start bashing the moderators there are a few things to consider.
First off, it's a different profile every day. That means they sign up, post the garbage and leave. At like 4:00 in the morning.
Second thing is they may be able to do a work around that will catch the culprits before they post but I personally do not want to see the forum locked to do it.
Last is that they do a pretty good job at keeping our forum clear of politics, religion and just plain crap. Maybe we should spend more time thanking them.

Re: IRRITATING ADS
Sorry, knee jerk response. These are recurring issues which have lasted for several days. I do appreciate the Moderators. It may be that they have other demands which prevent them from supporting this site. Don't know.
I apologize to the Mod's for my knee-jerk reaction. Sorry. I hope they will be able to remove the spam, soon. Thank you for your work on this site -- it truly is appreciated, in spite of my previous comment. Cheers!

Re: IRRITATING ADS
I can appreciate the difficulty of preventing spam. But how hard would it be for any mod who happened to be on to delete obvious spam?

Re: IRRITATING ADS
ONE MORE POINT worth mentioning, out moderators and the entire board/staff are all volunteers. Zero Pay so I can only assume that they also work a paying job and still have homes and family issues they still mush entertain. Honestly I think they are doing a bang up job all things considered!

Re: IRRITATING ADS
Well, it is happening again. What do these idiots, who, I notice, "join" the same day as their postings, think to gain out of these completely non-related-to-motorcycle postings?
