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

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.

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

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

8,667 members times a tenner. Mmmm

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

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

So why not just have more? I'm quite happy to volunteer

is this my cue to open a rival forum?

This is exactly the point I was making in #34..........

made me smile too...

i even reported the first one i saw using the icon - then i saw my new posts list - all latest posts are by a spammer.

This makes a mockery of the "New Posts" feature which alot of us use

so manual moderation has my vote, charging a tenner is fine too - but it amounts to the same thing - someone will have to moderate the payment

Yes I can see it's going ot be a 'busy' weekend on here - it's only Saturday.

As CD and Malc etc have said it's obviously done by hand so capchas won't work.
Maybe a maturity period would be a good idea - in that you can only post after 24 or 48 hours. Nothing will be perfect but something's got tp be done.

I'm tending towards what Malc mentioned earlier; £10 down before being allowed to post.

Another spammer "080522jk" has appeared and is posting in dozens of threads. Are they deliberately uisng the bank holiday weekend knowing they are less likely to be removed/banned until Tuesday.

Most of the posts are by hand so a capcha would not help IMO - here another spam post http://community.actinic.com/showthread.php?t=37000 . Lets see what happens over the weekend
