    Hi. I was wondering, how can I keep members from spamming me on this forum? I keep getting private messages from members trying to sell me things! Any suggestions>

    Well, there's nothing much you can do other than reporting it to the moderator team.

    As for me, I'll just ignore them.

    I think the best answers have already been given to you, but here's my 2 cents:

    Reply to all spam messages with " Thanks for your message. I'm afraid I've got a better offer than yours: click here(link to your product)". You may make some sales. And, BTW, no one can complain you've spammed them.

    Hi everyone, thank you all for your feedback. I guess the frustrating part is that whenever I get an alert that someone has PM'd me, I think it's something valuable regarding IM. But I would rather leave my PM on. Thanks for the feedback.

    by opening this thread, you have just welcomed more spammers!
    Reduce their rep, ignore them.

    There's no point in focusing on this.
