I thought I'd seen some porno thing the other day.

Also looking at the memberslist, some 1027 people have registered yet never posted.

Come on, get posting, we want to hear your opinions!

It should be better, but like Scuderia_Russ pionted out, some of the Spam Bots actually register, just look at the screenames, they are usually things like "Free_Viagra_at_our_website" or some such crap like that.

Oh well, look on the bright side...at least we can see by the user name what is spam and what isnt. This way Tomba & Principessa can see the Spam "users" before they post their spam and delete the user account! hehe.

In the fight against Spam F1T will prevail :twisted:

...I hope :? :!:

Just checked my e-mails and found a couple of unknowns in the bulk folder for the first time.
Just wondering if their is any chance that spammers can access members e-mail adresses and send them the crap personnely?

Sorry to be so pesimistic, but just thought it might be worth checkin out.

The sites are; imohd@top.eng.utoledo.edu ,
and, formeleins.de@ p15139805.pureserver.info .
