Is there a Moderator in the house?

Lets clear out this new round of spam....

Here, here!

What I suggested is the only way to activate an account 'here' and at this point is through Escribe. Even people with Mac's have the option to use Escribe. Connected to a DNA 200 board would be nice, but what if someone has a dead board out of the box. I've been on a few forums and spam in 'open forums' is a continuous problem. Also, being a Moderator is akin to a job.

I just went through and cleaned up the spammers I could find. We are looking into ways to lock down the registration process a bit more. We appreciate everyone's patience while we work on this!

A mechanism to report posts to a central admin/moderator mail box should be enough to catch them early.

Thank goodness...I have been eager to mention this, but didn't want to sound like I was complaining. Thanks for the swift action Nick!

Thanks Nick...I am not certain why such a topic specific forum is such a target.  A method of reporting such posts so you and your team can make chips and not babysit a forum may help.

I would be more than happy to take care of the spammers and their post. Being retired with a lot of time gets old some days. LOL

alendra  has been posting spam links for hours, positing in the hope someone who can fix this followed this thread.

Beside spammers, they are dumb to think they will earn some viewers from here.
Only"profit" i see they have, may be some benefit related to alexa , and even that...

I work also with advertising online for some years, and i know that is the most wrong way to advertise anything. You "burn" both your name and the product

Anyway, the previous idea of registration thru Escribe seems good
