Is there anything, we can do, as a united forum, to get rid of the garbage spam, that is haunting the board? I have reported it daily. Any ideas? I know the board is quiet, but there has to be a way to take our board back. Am I the only one, bothered? I know, stay off of the grass and don't feed the trolls. lol

Hit the report button and label it as spam.

Hit the report button and label it as spam. DITTO! Every time I get a chance, I also report it. I do know the SO is slow lately. It's more like one person has decided to use it as a bully pulpit. The poster does not use the political part of the SO.

Maybe even send an E-mail, with the General board link?

its because there is no one actively monitoring the board and new membership is set to automatic approval and posting privileges. I have never run a board this way. New members should always have to be approved and have first few posts/replies set to moderator approval

As I said already,this board is on the verge of being permanently abandoned,Due to lack of interest in it.

I know that this board is not being monitored like Dave did................ Rest In Peace, Webbie. M

Meanwhile, the SO is losing members every day. I think social media, like Facebook, is killing proboard forums.

There's nothing that can be done without an Admin who will be here almost every day deleting the spam. To be honest, I'm not sure why they fought so hard to save it and then let it go and don't care. Makes no sense.
