 Post subject: Spam People
Very odd thing to notice, but are we being spammed by people signing up the forum? I only say this as over the last few weeks we've had some unusual names sign up and they have their own websites....

I'm glad you guys have noticed too. It's getting very confusing.
I have mentioned this spam problem to Christophé... twice!
I'll pray for the forum.

they are already switched on and have been for months - maybe it wasn't bots, or maybe bots reported back the location and the fact they failed so somebody came and filled them in - would be a little pointless though! Maybe the settings are wrong - i'll check!
