I really wish RSI would get on whoever runs/watches this site and to and find a way to filter out all the spam it posts. Tired of seeing topics bounced off because of this crap!!

I blame the people behind the poorly written messages. I'm fine with them wasting their time, but fortunately it waste a moment of ours, as while it is annoying, they are easily identified as spam.

Easily identified and hopefully ignored by all, but they take up room on the forums, particularly the top 5 newest listed at the bottom of the page that we all first glance at. I can't freaking stand it when 3 of the 5 are idiotic spam! Evil or Very Mad

They ARE such a pain.
Almost daily I send Lee a list and she deletes them.
It is a neverending battle, which she is trying to get a more permanent fix on with the host.

I think this website needs an overhaul. The site doesnt do an effective job of blocking bots from creating accounts. I wonder if RSI would be open to rethinking this site.

I actually like the site. The e-mail spammers getting through poorly written post is only a small annoyance. I suspect many companies have issues with forums and bogus accounts/posts. Besides, it sounds like RSI is aware and working on the problem.

I think we figured out how they were making the new accounts and
having them get approved. I hope!

So if you see any more, please let me know, otherwise HOORAY!!!
