    Has anyone noticed the increase of spam lately? It's really aggravating. Any way to stop it? Thanks

    I'm deleting what I catch and banning the users. I'm sure the boys will have it taken care of again.....it happens every so often.

    It kinda seems that way. You didnt see any of this till the site was down. I'm sure they will fix it they just need time. I hope! LOL

    Most likely the security settings were automatically reset when the forum was down for maintenance yesterday. Its a bigger pain in the *** for me to delete these guys than it is for you to read them, so at least you got that going for you......which is nice.

    I'm sure they'll have it fixed in the next day or so. In the meantime, hopefully the Russian single girls will start spamming. :)

    I thought this thread was going to be about the good kind of spam, you know the kind you eat. Incidentally I ran an extra 3 miles the other day while running because I had a craving for a spam sandwich - which was extremely tasty after running 6 miles. Word of advice though, if you are counting calories I don't recommend eating this....:lol:

    Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
