Hello everyone.
Is the advertising that has appeared on the board sanctioned, or is it the spam that it appears to be?
If the latter, I hope it doesn't take over the board, and I hope those parasitic advertising scumbags get real jobs after their crap is expunged!

Message boards tend to always get spam attacks. Though the admins seem to be doing a pretty good job of cleaning it up.

Yeah, these things seem to come in waves. I am able to ban the spammers by username, email address, and IP address, but it is not foolproof. The only way to eliminate spam altogether is to lock the boards down completely, but obviously we don't want to do that.
So, we'll just continue to be diligent about fighting spam as it comes in. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thick Spam burgers grilled on the George Foreman are the best.

One can easily get 4-5 sliced patties out of a can.
