 I'm very sorry you had those

 I'm very sorry you had those problems DaemonToad3. The spam filter we use is from Mollom.com and they have a fantastic track record, but I too have seen false positives. 

I'd like to disable spam filters completely and allow anyone to post here, as I think it really livens things up, but when we were opened up like that we got a ton of spam.

Maybe we could get some moderators on here...

Mods & Spam

 I'll talk to Charlie how we're going to select mods, you'll hear from us soon!

Also, saw that we got spam posts to *** sites etc... removed those.
We should get a capcha registration to prevent most of that.

Re: Spam

 Wow, wasn't here for a day, and the forums have been spammed once again.

Got rid of them, and blocked the users. If I've blocked a real user, please let me know.

 Mollom (our anti-spam

 Mollom (our anti-spam service) was broken for the past couple weeks. I've corrected. Sorry for the rise in spam.

Anyone else want moderator status??
