Re: Hidden link spam

The non-removal of those posts was an oversight. It has been corrected. Realize us moderators do not watch 24/7. Sometimes there is not sufficient time to finish the task(we do get interrupted). Please continue reporting these sneaky spam shenanigans. I do not understand the reasoning behind inserti...

An aplology to "betterthantherapy"

Since references to administrator or moderator by a new userid as their initial post is very often a ploy used by spammers, it raises suspicion and usually results in banning. I apologize if it was either me or another moderator that banned you. I also apologize for just now 'discovering" your ...

Re: Sharpener model 600000

For what it may be worth, Moderators have taken over 250 actions during the past week. The problem seems to be never going away. We could use some help! PM admin and request being added to the fold.

Re: Turning Game Calls

First an apology! There are multiple moderators for this forum. Although I was not the one who disapproved your original thread, I will attempt to al least make you understand how it likely happened. Realize we have been quite busy lately and have been under attack by multiple spammers. One of their...

I did look in the Members list quite often, and do miss the access, but don't miss the spam. Says someone who is not filtering them out. I attribute the reduction in obvious spa...

Re: the rental

The thread's old, but I just wanted to say that it was not a bad idea, OP. I'm not sure if it was worth doing a reconstruction instead of building one.
