    Spammers are in every where, We can't stop them, But we can control them. I guess they use an automated system to send PM. Anyway there must be a rule to send PM for new members.

    I am also getting lots of SPAM PMs here as well but all i can do is just forward them to any online mod here.

    And btw i don't think so that crazy rob or anyone else can do anything to stop SPAMMING activities as we all together fight against it.

    DON.

    It's really sad that such things are happening.

    But we should not care about even reading such message.

    Disabling PM for the members who have less than 10 posts would be good. :)
    I have seen something like this in few other forums. :)

    Crazy Rob is not responsible for those, Its what moderators are for.

    Actually there isn't any moderator who is online most of time.
    I see very less mods online.
    It means we need some one who is online most of the time in order to control spam. :)
    Shawn needs to make a new mod.

    How moderators are responsible for those Shazz :confused:

    As soon as we forward SPAM pm to any online mod, he/she take action immediately as far as i know. Thats what they can do maximum for us.

    DON.

    You should forward any spam message to moderators and they will see that to do with the sender.
    Due to some database errors, you can see the same message appearing again and again even after deleting.

    I think i am going to open my own softgroups's forum , because i really tired of people like Crazy Rob out here who said he won't ban a scammer unless he have multiple accounts. And from what i saw people loose around 10k by being frauded on DP. 10k by what they report, not everyone report.

    This is good idea but freaky speaking it is hard to judge on the "scammer" since the scammer is reporting other member scam them.....
