For those who do not know, you can report a post to a moderator by clicking the red triangle at the top right hand corner of the post which will open a window and allow you to comment on the report. The system will send the report to the appropriate moderator.

It seems that the person only joined the forum to post spam. I think you should add to the terms of use that anyone who ijoins for the purpose of posting spam agrees to pay a $200 removal fee per post. This should be legally binding and would help raise a good amount for the Creek.

Thank you for recitifying the situation.

Thanks Ken. It seemed to me that he only joined to post spam. Thanks to all the moderators who usually have a thankless job. Were it not for you fellows, we would probably be flooded with this stuff.

Maybe a member needs to be registered for 30 days before they can advertise. They do that on another forum I frequent. It is set up exactly like this forum.

We don't allow any advertising.
