Lisa, You've Been Spammed

Yes, I find that statement very funny.

The way you said it

As being a new member here I happened to stop by earlier and saw that post-I'm not a prude but If I'm looking for that type of thing I would go to that type of thing website--My first thought was Oh No-this is not allowed is it!
So glad it's not. Sorry people were exposed to that - these people have no sense of worth or direction and just cause unneeded extra work for webmasters who try to have decent sites.

I have enough time spent on getting my website exposed to those who need it and don't know it exists yet without having to deal with these type of ridiculous spammers.

No it's definitely not allowed and it's becoming a bear to manage. What's happening is people have automated scripts that automatically post bulk spam to multiple forums all at once. Even though I have the forum set so you have to verify with a unique email address and answer my anti spam question, people are still finding ways around it.

CAPTCHA scripts (where people have to enter the random 6 letters before they register) are no longer as effective because these spam bots can read them. So I implemented yet ANOTHER anti-spam script upon registrating but they're still getting through.

I'm just sorry you guys have to be exposed to this. It's disgusting.
