Hi guys,
This is a question mostly for the sight moderators and coordinators, but you guys can feel free to comment also. I just have been noticing that a particular user has been posting random advertisements all over the forums page. 3 this morning. I don't think that there is much harm in the posts themselves, but the external links in the posts may have a virus. It can be ignored, however it is annoying when this user posts his advertisements in the middle of a conversation. It just isn't good online etiquette. If he posted it on his own topic it wouldn't be as bad, but I think it would be best to keep Bloomilk advertisement free.

That's my 2 cents on the subject

Thanks,

GBC

We try to get to the spambots as soon as we can. If you see such a post, just notify a mod. Spambots are a part of forum life, just have to be patient until they are dealt with.

Correct, we're the 2 main mods here. We remove them as soon as we see them, but when they show up in some other conversation it's helpful to point them out. (much easier to spot them when in their own threads)

Thanks!
