To stop spammers, I have to manually approve the first five postings of each new member of the forums. To reduce the workload, and to improve the speed at which these new members are approved, I'm looking for a few volunteers to help out. The work load is ridiculously simple. You just have to review the moderation log, from time to time, and approve any new members who are not obviously spammers. And if a spammer does managed to "fool" me (or any of the new spam catchers), then all you have to do is mark them as a spammer. If you're interested, send me an email here: [email protected] Any questions, please post them below. Thanks!

Day after day I have to read several posts in a row in the same thread by the same poster. These people are not using the "Multiquote" button and are spamming the forums. I'm not sure if it's a tactic in order to inflate their post count or what it is. This multiquote button is used to use one post to respond to to several posts at the same time, saving the forums resources and the readers patience at the same time. There are several posters who are doing this, it isn't just one poster. edit- I've also noticed people aren't snipping their posts as they are supposed to. Wastes resources and makes it hard to read.
