Fear not guys ... Dave is working on getting an anti-spam filter installed ... meanwhile, the mods are trying to delete the SPAM messages that get through when we see them ...

The Speedo photo board is flooded with Spam posts at this moment. The interesting thing is that some of the links lead to computer viruses of their own. If you see a spam post or what you suspect of being a spam post please do not click on the link.

Tony, are you posting on a thread that has spam in it? I wonder if it is getting deleted on those threads? It could be a server malfunction still too? I believe server transitions are taking place right now.

No, not on a thread. My post go up for a few minutes then they are gone. I have emailed Dave and I think it is bull shit that he has time to be posting pictures and what not but not have time to respond to my emails.

I wasn't telling him what to do... Just wondered why the spam was appearing.

Tony,

This is the first I've heard about it mate.

I've never received an email from you pal.

I've got a server changeover in the next couple of days and once that is all done I'll be able to work on some minor clitches with the forum. Thanks for your patience guys.


Dave

Do not get me wrong, I am not mad or pissed. I am just upset that apparently my messages and posts do not go through.
