Friends,

We're seeing an increase in spam posts. Spam is not just annoying, but the links can go to hazardous parts of the internet with malicious code to infect your computer. Can you help us keep the site cleaned up?

The spammers are getting smart and not creating threads, but posting to existing threads. Almost always, it's from new user accounts that actually finished the sign-up process.

If you see something that needs a clean-up, please PM the following admins with a link to the thread involved:

-ClayPerrine
-Vacca Rabite
-Rusty

By emailing all three of us, one of us is sure to clean it up quickly and *ahem* escort the jerkwad off the premises.

v/r
Rusty

While we're on the subject, can we do anything about that @jameshanks guy that posts nothing but ebay listings in the classifieds?
If I wanted to see ebay listings, I'd go to ebay. Not to mention that there's a subforum for that, but he's posting in the cars for sale section. The guy has 0 actual posts. It clogs up the classifieds from actual real members who are selling their cars.
