anyone notice that? people that join and have one post that is spam. I use to admin a forum for many years, it's not easy keeping this stuff out. The bots are really difficult to keep out. also does the reporting a post link work? I don't get any message or confirmation either way when using it. I use it to report spam.

The spam really isn't that bad...either now (today, this week, or this month)...or historically. If we were geting 50 spam/day...then that would be alot.

The spam reporting did work...I got a message on it...and it was taken care of as it always has for the 10+ years I've been here. Most members never even see the spam...since the Mac-Forums Staff has always done a great job taking care of it!

Thanks for the help & the reported post/thread.:)

Sounds good. Reporting system for questionable stuff is working fine. Please send it our way...and we will take care if it.:)

Thanks,
