It was never my ambition to spend my life removing spam from the forum. Isn't it about time we had some more secure method of accepting postings, or a human being to vett them before the crap gets on here?

Idle Chitchat

A non-technical answer would be the posts are sent through some kind, obliging person before getting anywhere near the forum. 
People email enquiries to me all the time, they don't get onto my website unless I choose to have them.

They are called moderators which you are one of them All new post to the forum have to be approved buy one of the moderators until that person has posted 3 items, then they can post with out being approved. All the crap that is being posted about 90 a day at the moment are not seen by visitors until one of the moderators approves them.Bill Kibby wrote:A non-technical answer would be the posts are sent through some kind, obliging person before getting anywhere near the forum.![]()
