As a moderator, I check the forum several times daily looking for spammers. You know - the "make money by doing nothing" crapola that infects each & every area of the forum every so often. When I find such a thing, I move the offending posts to the appropriate areas ie: "Offers" or "Advertise Your Site", and then to the "Hall of Shame". I send the offending party either a PM or an email as well. Most often, these cretins are banned from further posting. If they choose to apologize to the Forum as a whole, we may reinstate their posting privileges on a limited basis. Borghunter & I stay in regular communication on this issue.
I will not tolerate spammers infecting this Forum and do what I can to keep any other members from being bothered by them. Feel free to PM me with your concerns at any time.

I for one extremely appreciate your efforts, es. I was sole Moderator of this site for a time (while Drew & JWB rarely visited), and then sole Admin (again while Drew & Jimmy failed to come) and I know what it's like, especially with a relatively large and long-running site like this that's indexed in all the search engines. Allforums tends to attract the MMF scammers like bees to flowers.

Keep up the good work, es. :)
