It does need addressing really doesn't it. There are many options to combat spam, but vigilance comes near the top of the list. You just get the impression this forum is abandoned sometimes.

I do get the impression this place is just left for the ads to run.

I love him also on my board. But I also like this board and want it to be successful so there are lots of threads to post in.

I installed it, BUT ... it didn't work. It only broke this forum. I need to review all codes to see why it didn't work. Meanwhile, I'll do my best to delete all Spam posts as soon as I can ...

Sorry ...

Cheers. You can't really avoid spam, but it was getting ridiculous on here. have you thought about appointing some moderators to just delete any that slips through?

Glad to hear you're working on the spam problem. That's the trouble with phpBB, the anti-spam mods can be difficult to install.
