Sass and I were gone for two days. We came back and a person had joined this forum and had posted 137 posts about drugs: where to buy them and what to buy. 137 posts. Ironically, the last post was a "Hi, thought I would say HI. I hope this is the right place to post. How is everybody." Normally, this is the first post by a spammer. I guess the "BOT" got confused. Anyway, I spent a half hour deleting everything and blocking the spammer by every way I can muster. I honestly, from the bottom of my heart hate spammers, liars and thieves.

I took the time to look through the MisFiT membership and deleted all the known rift-raft. I saved IPs, email addresses, and other information before hand. Now, our City is clean!! And, the garbage will be taken out on a regular bases... so there menace-trash-leavin'-spammers!!

AS much as I agree with you both... "Hate" is an energy wasting word, instead of directing your energies toward hating, make more efforts to block spammers from joining. :)

I agree, hate is a draining emotion. The word has little value accept to describe a very powerful feeling that comes from having to expend the effort to block those that are trying to hi-jack or steal this or any other forum. We use filters that help us in blocking thousands of spammers a year. I am sincere, though, in checking out each one that is blocked to be sure they have a serious history of spamming. I can spend a couple of hours every time I get on line. Since we travel a lot, we sometimes go two to three days without being able to find Wi-Fi. For instance, I last checked our forum on Wednesday morning and cleaned our site of all attempted spammers. Today, Thursday, at 5 PM, I have been notified of 48 spammers that attempted to enter our site.That would be an average of 36 a day.
Now with all of that in mind, I hate liars and thieves as well and spammers are both. I have no tolerance with liars and thieves. None, zero, zip. They all will steal something from me, if it is only brain cells. Anyway, I appreciate your heart felt post.
warmly,
Mick
