Title: ALL NEW MEMBERS PLEASE READ: Spammers Not Welcome
Post by: DDGator on July 18, 2011, 04:08:27 PM: FAIR WARNING TO ALL NEW FORUM PARTICIPANTS: We look foward to welcoming you to our community. However, when you first post is off-topic and/or you have a link to commercial material in your post or your signature line, YOU WILL BE IMMEDIATELY DELETED, BANNED, AND IP BLOCKED WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE. Sorry if the net is ever cast too wide, but dirty rotten spammers who steal our bandwidth and our time and not welcome here.

If you are accidentally nuked from the forum, please send me an e-mail and appeal to me for special dispensation.

That is all!

Post by: DDGator on August 18, 2011, 12:29:14 PM: Let me further amend this to say... if ANY post you make contains commercial links...no matter how hard you try to sound like a gun guy...you will be immediately nuked.

No patience anymore, and I won't waste the brain cells trying to figure out if you are legit or not.

Commercial links = User deleted, IP banned.

If you have any questions, check with me in advance or risk the nuclear option.

Thanks.

Duane Rocks!

Post by: DDGator on November 09, 2011, 09:19:49 AM: As if sensing their time is short, attacks on the forum have stepped up quite a bit...

I am deleting suspicious new "members" every couple of hours in a pre-emptive strike.

Post by: DDGator on November 09, 2011, 02:39:26 PM: I am nuking a lot more before they "sprout." The pattern seems to be that they register over the wee hours of the morning one day, and then post over the wee hours the next. I am cutting the life cycle. Now only the ones who register and post quickly get through.
