    Yesterday there were several spammers online here. Even though it was great fun to hang around and read some of the comments that came out of it from members warnings to the final axe by the “Mod’s”, is there any quick method available to notify a "Mod" about them or are the spammers picked up by random checking of the forums? AOL had what I used to recall was a TOS violation method which you could cut and paste and send out to their “Mod’s.”

    Thanks ScubaPete

    It seems that only members have that "Report an offensive post" button.


    If there is a button to click on, I must be blind because it's not in my browser. <G>

    Um.. I think it's flip218 <G>

    Maybe one of the mods can answer this question. Does a Newbie have a [bold]Report an offensive post button[/bold] and if we do, where the heck is it? I hope it's not one of those, "I lost my keys and can't seem to find them when they are right here in front of my face!" <G>

    All I have in Orange at the top and bottom of Forums is: "Reply", "Start a new thread", & Unsubscribe from this thread."

    Yep, it would appear that "newbies" don't have one -

    Members and up ?

    Do any Jr's have one ?
