    Is anyone other than me getting dumb messages from other DP forum users? I bet I'm not the only one...

    My suggestion:

    Add an option in all user's PM inboxes the ability to report trash mail received so that the forum admins can review it and take action against those that send you unwanted/unsolicited PM's.

    What if you do want to receive messages from other members? Are you just going to block everyone out just because of a couple of users?

    You shouldn't have to turn off that option unless you definitely don't want to receive messages from anyone at all.

    I usually just forward the spam PM to any of the mods with the title SPAM.

    You've only been here 2 full days and you've started to get PM spam already? You must have made an impression on someone!

    LoL Good one!

    Does spamming DP members actually get any of the spammers ANYWHERE?

    I mean most of us are "experienced" webmasters so to say, and MOST of us just won't fall for anything....

    Is it really worth their time?

    Just send PM spam to a mod to handle. Link to list of mods found just above the list of who's online on homepage of forum.
