G'day Guys,

Welcome to the Speedo Forum.

If you are a guest, you can only see a small portion of the forum. Members like posting their speedo selfies so I don't like that to be 100% public. However, joining is free.

If you are a new member, you need to email me your username so I can manually activate your account. This is a pain (for you and me) but it is the only way I've been able to keep the spam bots from ruining the forum. My email address is: DaveEvans@SpeedoFetish.com

This forum is free and I don't allow any advertising (except my own sites), if you would like to donate please click the link above, all donations go towards the hosting and maintenance of the forum for everyone to enjoy.

The last spammer posted more than 75 times here. Is there any way to stop it?

I'm disgusted by all this spam too. But I'm unhappy with the fcat that I've offered to be a moderator and help out and I've received no reply so far. If I'm not mistaken, both you and I Justin88 were brought up to serve as moderators. This is an awesome forum and I'd love to help out. But it seems my willingness to help has gone unnoticed and isn't appreciated.

The spam really is getting a bit much.

You'd be an excellent moderator.

Have a look at the Say G'day section. It is more packed with spam than the average built in an Asian Speedo!

Hey guys,

The spam is a pain and we are working on it. Kip is going to find an update to the anti-spam stuff that has been working well until recently and I have been deleting and banning the spammers.

Unfortunately, I'm not able to be on this forum 24/7 so sometime spam will be here for a little while until I get a chance to delete it. 95% of the spam is in the 'Say G'day if you are new here' area.

As for the moderators, I received all your feedback - there was lots which was a great sign. Right now I'm in the middle of launching a new site and am spending 14hrs+ a day getting it ready. Hopefully in a week or two that will be completed and I can get to the list of things that I have been neglecting (adding new moderators here being one of those).

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Sounds good, Dave - I've been trying to get online at least once (if not twice) a day to delete what I see ...

he posted four more while I typed my previous message.

I think he's going for a spam record here.

he/she/it is still doing it as we post our messages. This is ridiculous.

I have experienced that some boards require a personal message to the moderator first, in order to gain access to the site.

I wonder why spammers are aiming for specifically THIS site..

An excellent question. In the world of spammers I guess this board is an easy target.
