Better screening process for new forum members NEEDED
We are starting to get more and more spammers in this group.
there has to be a better way for people to join and not have the spammers making profiles.
Someone needs to ban them right away, if your selling shoes or watches this IS the wrong forum lol

Re: Better screening process for new forum members NEEDED
Rod,
Jeremy and I do what we can do. But we're not 24 hrs online.
If you see a potential spammer, pls send me an email and I will remove the posts and ban the guy.
Anyhow, consider it carefully. I too made some mistakes in the past when I followed the wisdom of the crowd. Banning people is not fun. It is a serious issue.

I agree, there was that one guy last week with the shoes spam, I think I lost count at 40, but maybe a screening process requiring a counter that has been active for a week

Just about every time I get on here I have to report spam, and I'm getting sick of it.
