i think maybe we need to update the security when registering for the site. maybe have an admin approve it and send out a link to activate your account. it would keep some spammers not all out IMO.

just a suggestion

Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.

I didn't get the PM. Guess he figured I'm a fuddy-duddy or something ;) . Anyhoo, I banned the user by IP address, deleted their account and all their posts. I don't know what that does for PMs sent.

BTW, this was a user who took the time to get past the spam-limiting measures that we've taken and to PM people individually so as to avoid the moderators.

Rob has put quite a few measures in place, and the moderators are diligent, but some are going to slip through. Anything draconian enough to stop them all would severely limit our access to, and enjoyment of, GDF.

This would explain the email stating that I had an email and then my finding no email.
Thanks guys.
