got em, thanks. They had been quiet for awhile. This is just going to be an ongoing thing. Just so you all know, Aaron has the forum set so these people actually have to make an account with a legit e-mail and respond to the activation link. So it' s not like they are just slamming us without having to go through a registration process. We're pretty fortunate that between the mods and the members these posts get caught and removed quick.

Yup. BigD gets all those overnight and mornings. I get them mornings and all day long. Mike gets them when he's off work. :cheers: But they get gotten sooner or later. [biggrin]

I took care of the ones last evening that sickbayer was talking about. Deleted 5 or 6 posts and 3 or 4 accounts. Even managed to ban one of their IPs and take the entire site down with it.

ya, the IP site crash is an ugly bug. Were you ever able to find a way to ban entire countrys? I had no luck looking through the settings.

I don't think we need members from Ukraine.

I banned him first and then went back and killed his post. We probably got him at the same time...
