I see that someone posted 50 responces to different postings that have NOTHING to do with the post. They did this to post their website . My opinnion is that this a fishing forum info site. Maybe I didn't get enuff sleep last nite and it's making me a grouch. I'll go to bed earlier tonite laugh hyst

Dave I didn't join this site to get the most post.. Just thought it was stange that someone had nothing better to do then to put up stupid posts on a fishing forum.. I look forward to the fishing info on here and to read the post that all the true members have to say.. Like I said I needed more then 3hrs sleep.

I agree, if someone is just using the forum as a captive audience to attract attention to their own commercial interests, that's in appropriate. They should be honest and advertise in an appropriate manner and pay for it.

Keep in mind that once Spammers get in through automated methods or even manually they typically use automated scripts to blast a site with posts. I saw them come through on quite a number via email as I have my profile settings setup to email me when a thread is replied to that I either subscribe or participate in. Since I use mobile mail a lot on the phone it keeps me in touch with replies and also when we get spammed.

Somebody banned the last one just before I got in to take them out.

Best thing to do when you see post like that is not respondto them. they get deleted and then your post makes no since. When i delete a spammers post i only delete one and the programing of the site zapps all there posts. fencing
