Spammers

Postby ultraslacker » Thu Jun 29, 2006 8:13 am

hey everyone,

Just wanted to say a few things about spammers:

1) when they post, please DO NOT respond to their posts.
2) when they post links/websites, please DO NOT click on them! They can track the click-throughs and it works in their favour.
3) Please DO NOT report post, send me a pm, etc. I know you do it to be helpful, but I often get 2-3 messages ABOUT each spam, and that's not necessary--usually one of the mods will see it and move it right away, or Jen or I will see it right away, so we don't need to be notified (but thanks for wanting to help! :)
