    Default Hello! Skiers Choice! Are You Listening?

    Are you paying attention? Obviously not with all the bitching and the site being full of spammers.....

    Please do something or post a reason as to why this is still going on.

    Evidently they aren't John. Haven't you noticed that the General forum has a complete first page full of spam?

    Oh, why yes I have noticed that John.

    Thanks for paying attention Skier's Choice. That doesn't say much for potential customers

    OK, this has passed the point of annoying and is bordering on insanity. There is almost no moderation whatsoever. You can't even follow a thread anymore. The only deleted spam posts have been on the spam complaint thread. The top 11 threads in the general forum are spam posts advertising the likes of viagra, lorcet, and anal sex. Seems like it gets cleaned up like once every 2 weeks.

    Shall I start an independent supra forum of my own and then just leach the members from this site? Should be easy enough to spam to get them.

    Default Frustrating

    It's really crazy how we are getting hit with this garbage right now.
    I cleaned the board last night at 9:00pm. Then again this morning at 8:00am.
    And now less than two hours later we've been hit at least two more times.

    Obviously, not good ... particularly given the graphic nature of what is being posted.

    We have added another moderator on our end. Hope that helps. But right now, it
    appears that the Chinese and Russian porn industry has made us their distribution partner.

    I'm no software expert, but I think there are a few upgrades that would keep some of this stuff off.

    Also, screening new members and approving their account when they register will help. Most of the time you can tell some of these people apart, especially when they fill in their profile or signature.

    If you need more moderators, I'd add the members that are on the board frequently that you know post often or sign in the most. More moderators won't fix this, but will help keep the crap away. When the spammers post, delete the post, then ban them and their IP address.

    scmarketing, it would help if you'd log in more than once a week!

    Default Sad

    I'm checking in on the site every hour. Unfortunately porn travels faster than I can delete.
    I apologize to anyone who has kids that check our site. Not right.

    We have DMGx working diligently on blocking the offending spam. Right now we don't seem to have the issue resolved.

    I'm hoping that it gets resolved soon.
