Default Not here PLEASE

I'm fairly new to this forum but I feel that NRXTENBROD is way out of line. Is there a way to block this guy? We have young people here and they shouldn't be exposed to these images of a pig. John

In the top right of every post, you see an icon like this:



If you see a spam post, click on that icon, and report it. We'll remove it as soon as we can.

Thanks

Probably a Spammer. They sneak in occasionally, and get filtered pretty quickly.

Next time, just hit the Report button to notify the staff.

<edit> Too slow...... But it helps prove my point that the staff moves quickly....

Thanks guys for the heads up. I have sent this site to some of my grandchildren and you can understand my concern. John

Yea, I understand. Personally, I'd prefer jail time, or hanging, for the spammers. Since I don't have the ability to do that, I'm working on some other long-term solutions, such as having any new member who tries to post a link go into a moderation queue instead of instantly being published. The greater problem is, though, that the spammers always seem to be several steps ahead of the good guys, and always seem to find a way of shoving their crap down our throats. It really does help, though, a lot, to know that so many people care enough about this community to speak up, and to report spam posts.

Part of the issue is the title. Spammers have only one, very limited, definition for the word "model"...

I think the staff is doing a fine job, considering the battle they are up against

Thanks guys for keeping this site tidy. You're usually so fast that I never see a problem.
