I joined this sight so I could communicate with people that share the same love for the outdoors and shooting that I do. Not to be smuthered with these viagra and vicodine advertisements.:mad: Who else agrees?

I think we all do Rob. Our new membership screening system is working pretty good, but some occasionally get through. On average over the last week, we get over thirty new applicants per day, usualyy only one or two of them appear legitimate. I can screen most of the spambots pretty easily, but when folks register with actual names, I do try to give them the benefit of the doubt and then do damage control and cleanup as necessary. As to the viagra salesmen, we know that they won't have any trouble ...(censored)... I think you get my drift. :)

I try to check the forum four or five times a day, but when I have other obligations and am on the road, I can only get to it in the evening when I get home. Today's spammer set a record of 63 posts at one time and the bugger was still at it when I deleted them and banned him from the forum. I hate spam.
