Hi, I apologize for let the forum run on auto pilot, effect immediately I have made John J. Xenakis and David Horn moderators. Hopefully this weekend I will be able to take more permanent actions.

Well, it seems that lots of unwelcome posts have disappeared.

Yes, but the tools are still a bit confusing.  For Spammers, it does help to ID them as such, rather than one of the other options on the Report list.  Spammers can be deleted, en masse.

Other than that, Xenakis and I will just have to learn our newly acquired craft.  FWIW, we're born 1 year apart to the day.  Beware the wrath of Aries!  Big Grin Angel

One thing we have learned about the Internet-a web site will soon be overwhelmed by spam without constant over watch by moderators

Thank you, moderators. This task must be less than thrilling.

Glad you guys are now able to get rid of spammers. Couldnt believe it when i came back to see whats up to see mostly just spam. Aries more wrathful than scorpio out of pure curiousity?

Aries is the God of War, so there's that, and being the first sign of the zodiac, we're perpetual children as well.  That may be all it takes.

This is great news! The spam really was getting out of control. Thank you to the new moderators.

Can't claim messiah status, and the fun is ????, but keeping this place functional has it's rewards.

David Horn is doing most of the work (having most of the fun??), but
it's nice to see the forum thriving again.
