this weekend

seems like we got hit hard this weekend by 3 foreign spammers. the administrators no longer check new members as they did under the old system. I have requested that they do start doing this again to prevent anyone registering and then shutting down the forum with spam. it takes awhile for me to sort thru the good guys and bad guys, hopefully I do not step on anyone's toes.

Jim, Thanks for watching these and trying to keep them out. I notice they all have been joining with a combination of a "country" and local state. Such as "the Bahamas" New York or Russia IL.

they also seem to post early mornings, I can determine their location from their IP address and due to the time difference tells me when they are more active. hopefully we can go back to review new members and weed out the bad guys.

There were at least seven that registered late Saturday and into Sunday morning. It's doubtful anyone that "says" they own a 2004 Corvette and lives in Yugoslavia is interested in an Escape trailer. Yeah right bucko!! Spam is bad enough, but Porn Spam

Here's another one, just registered at 5:13 PT this morning: http://www.escapeforum.org/forums/me...xcsb-2424.html

You probably already know but it bears repeating, not to click on any links in these spam postings -- therein lies a virus
