Spam on this board

[Meadow]

bh, if you go into your profile, you can change the time settings there.

Another 13 spam posts this morning, I think from the same IP address. Didn't have the time to check though.

Thanx mate, clever stuff!! Nearly went to Tinpot time instead.

Tinpot Time I've put the entire board on summer time, so yes, you just have to adjust your own profile.

I'm offering my administration services to have a root around in the back end to sort out so we get no more spam at all.

I have carried out such operations on other fora with great success

I'm in most days clearing the crap, but I haven't got admin rights to ban IP addresses. I have to give those details to Ambersal to deal with. I'm sure any offers would be gratefully received, certainly by me because I deleted over eight posts this morning and the maximum in one day was fifteen (I think, I've lost count).

ARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!

Thanks Croc. I shall have a word with the co-management and get back to you

OK folks, an idosyncrasy of this board is that if spam posts are removed, the thread they were removed from appears as the last thread posted on.

Obviously, that is not the case most of the time. Take the time to log in and actually look. You'll most likely see that there are some unread posts (say she hoping there might be a bit more traffic on this board).
