A note to new members about posting

Marco · #1 (**permalink**) 12-20-2007, 10:00 PM

Hi Everyone, and welcome to our Purse Page forum!

To help stop spammers, Im using a sotware that prevents spam.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) the software is paranoid about everyone new who joins, and that means your first or second message might not publish right away until I can check it to make sure you're a real person.

Until I can find a better solution it's what I have. Its either that, or get 20-30 messages a day about Nokia flip phones or "male enhancement" pills. lol

Thanks for understanding, and its only temporary for new members. If y'all have a solution to it let me know.

thanks!

Marco

In this case, spam means junk advertisements. People sign up to a messageboard and just post advertisements in their posts, then leave. So theyre trying to get people to click and visit their site. A lot of the ads are for things that have nothing to do with us, like cell phones, ringtones, replica watches, etc.
