Somebody get rid of nsk

8,667 members times a tenner. Mmmm

They'll be able to afford to pay BETA testers for V10 then, eh?

How about £10 for new a user to register and they get this knocked off the price of Actinic if they purchase.

Or just require an Actinic licence key before you can post. Each key could only be used once.

I think there should be a Pre-Sales forum where posts are as they are now and then the normal 'user' forums where posters need to confirm their Actinic key before being allowed tro post in. That way it limits the spam to a smaller more manageable area.

May as well shut the forum down today - for what use it is.

Hi there, I am deleting all the spam I can find currently and will be keeping an eye on it. Thanks to the members who have reported the spam for me to find it.

Kind Regards

Im a member of a forum where you need to buy a £25000 car to get in so £10 is nothing or an actinic users forum where you get a registration code when you buy software.

The thing is that spammers are finding it ever harder to find open forums to post thier links as one of two things happen:

1. the forum closes
2. Anti spam measures are enforced ie you pay to get in.

This forum is a target and it was a no bariner that this was going to happen especially after details of the poor moderation were posted - HELLO spammers can read - Im turning off my email notification now and its a waste of time checking for new posts so bye

Thanks Nadeem - you got the short straw for the weekend?

Can i suggest you just delete the 2 idiots instead, why waste time deleting posts, just delete the 2 users and all of their posts.

They're still at it - quick fingers using Ctrl C and V

[Nadeem]

Ok I have deleted the 2 spammer from the forum, and removed all their content, I will continue to check onto the forum today. If you see anymore, please use the reporting on the forum, so I can check

Many thanks for your understanding

Kind Regards

I know one of the trusted (non actinic emplyee) moderators is also away!

I think you mean me ... I'm here ... night shift generally though ATM.

To report spam you have to wait 1 minute in between each report. To add spam, you only need to wait 10 seconds in between. Hmm that sounds like painting the forth bridge.

How about having new members register and then be unable to post for first 72 hours using their password, but new Actinic purchasers could use the first six digits of their actinic key for imediate access to post untill the 72 hours has passed

That way its time consuming for spammers but if you buy actinic you get immediate use.

[Duncan Rounding]

I think we should have a Pre-Sales forum where you can post either immediately or after 24 hours.

The main forums could be limited to Actinic registered users who have their purchase checked before being allowed posting rights.
