Before we were moderating new members, but people want to post right away, else they may forget about the site (and we don't want that to happen!). Register and post. So I installed something real nice a few months ago that is blocking about 95% of the spammers, while leaving the door open for all fishermen and boaters ... and for a few of the spammers. But the site activity between new members went up, so it needs to stay this way.
Thank you for your help. When you see a spam thread/post, cick the red icon located in the post to report it. Thanks.
Thanks for that info Jer. I did not know what that icon was for. I will use that in the future instead of starting a thread on it. Keep up the good work. I have noticed quite a few of the new members have jumped right in with posts.
