Bogus Forum Members

Post by Roger »

Has anyone looked at the Forum Memberlist lately. It has 30 or 40 new members listed from about member No. 329 on that are just websites for products, gambling, ring tones for cell phones, etc. Is this the latest form of forum hacking??? Do these commercial sites have worms that go out and find forums and then register themselves as members just to get visibility of their product/service web sites??

I suggest the Web Master or someone start kicking these type members off or we may be run over with advertisements.

Comments?

Good Idea?

Roger,

I have thought the same thing, but the last time I suggested something to the "powers that be", it did not go over well. :lol:

I hope all is well with you and your family.

Best wishes for a happy, healthy and prosperous new year. Please give our regards to Wendell.

Respectfully,

Joe Ribaudo
