Sorry for the spam as of late

As most of you know, we have been getting hit all week with sick minded perverts spamming us with their porno.

We depend on the membership here to use the "Report this post" feature which brings attention to staff of a troubled thread.

The icon is at the bottom of the box the offenders name is in, and looks like this

Click on it it to report this stuff, and we will handle it when we see it.

Thank you very much, and I apologize for the low IQ of these perverts doing this on a forum that is read by all ages.
It is obvious they do not have or care for family values.
Probably born out of incest.

Yeah I saw the recent one I think with J-Lo or someone. It's getting irritating that these scums think that they can post anything on a family type forum. I commend you guys for your hard work and dedication.

Thanks for just now reporting the spam for a web host.
Using that feature really helps us.

Upon further investigation of him, he had two other accounts here, or his fellow spammers did from the same domain.

All three are now gone.

Also to those of you that do reply in the spammers post, you will only see the post for awhile until we move it to a vault.

Thanks guy's.
I personally spend a few hours each week weeding out these scumbags.
We have got about 15 to 20 this past week alone.

A lot are from Russia.

You guys are quick, I haven't seen a single one of those and I'm on here for several hours at a time several times a day depending on class schedule.

Good work Staff!

Yes folk's, they are still hitting us.
Having only one brain cell to work with, these spammers just do not get it.

Bagged and tagged three tonight myself.

Thanks again for using the "Report this post" feature.

As others have said, I spend a fair amount of time on yotatech, and haven't seen a one.

Thanks for the effort in any event. Only reason I do spend time here is that the forum is made up of pretty nice folk, despite their age...
