Now there are at least two of us who can use an English to Russian translator to post here.

BUT I still believe that if a post is in a foreign language it should be deleted and banned.

I agree with you. Also, I can't figure out what the motivation is for someone to copy old posts and try to pawn them off as new. Maybe they are kids just messing with us? Who knows?

I agree, particularly when there is no link to an unrelated web site included. Regardless it is still SPAM!

I believe this is being done as a way to get into the system without being immediately deleted/banned. Once in (registered as a member) then they can do their work. Some of these poster lay dormant for weeks and months. Just theory.

My My My! Now Dusty is going off topic!

Just following the flow!

Get ready for some more. The latest new member kirillvovva Lists a website that is Russia, .ru and his profile is written in Cyrillic.

Moderators take note. There is absolutely no reason these type of "members" should be on this forum. Delete them before they can SPAM the forum. Have we EVER had a legitimate post from an Eastern European / Russian "member"?

I remember seeing a member a few years ago from an Eastern European country. IIRC he was looking for a part and repair help. All of the posts were in English though.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
