Maybe I'm being picky but I'd like all spam and the threads removed from our board. Particularly the recent thread today. Also the one by Bentan seems perhaps not spam but completely out of character for this forum.

There've actually been LOTS of them that most folks haven't seen. They are Bot-created and are hard to stop. Nonetheless, there is a way we could stop it from happening, a bit....
So your concerns ARE shared, and I'll see if there's anything we can do to make it stop happening- one forum here is left open to "guest" posting, which is the problem, BUT that feature is there so if anyone has login problems etc, they can at least post a "HELP" thread- maybe a "global e-mail" address that you can keep and use in case of emergency would eliminate the need for that...
Right- I'll post any adopted proposals here, and if anyone has any other suggestions, fire away

I know you can't stop it, just it would be nice to have it disappear. I'm glad you're getting rid of most of it before we even see it. Thanks.

No sweat, between the four of us we are pretty good- and we do have safeguards in place- account approval and such, so we can stop a LOT of it- this particular sub-forum is the "open" one, so if it's closed, drive-by spam should be cut down to zero...
If I run into Sib online I'll see what's the what about what we might still be able to do
