As miniriders said Sam, if you see a spammer or soemthing offensive, hit the ! button up the top right of the particular post and one of the Mods(Scott, miniriders[rob],Hillz or myself will attend to it as quickly as possible. Its not physically possible for us to keep a 24 hr eye on the board, as much as we try, so its up to members to keep us in the loop on the ones that may slip through!

No matter how tempting it might be to click on those links saying "Britney Spears Nude" - just avoid clicking them. Some points to keep in mind to suss out a spammer:
They'll have a strange usernames not commonly found on this board
They'll only have 1 or 2 posts
They won't have an avatar
Their profile won't be filled out
Their posts will contain links
They will post incoherently
They will be talking about something wierd like viagra, porn or debt consolidation
Thats about all I go on when nutting them out. Otherwise we have a pretty nice antispam system happening at the moment which keeps 99% of them from posting. You've probably seen some of those "Moderated Posts" lying around hey Bryan?
Lol, yep noticed a few of em!!
inparticular the one that stands out is in the Z forums, he even said i was a pimp! lmao. bit of effort!! lol. but yeh mate, am keeping my eyes open and deleting and life banning them as i find em!
They must do searches for common topics?? Z50, Graphics, etc.!? There are still a few im just watching closely, that are members, with no posts, but browse alot.. so will keep the eyes open for em!
Am off for the night Rob.
Sleep well!
