Take your SPAM elsewhere!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where's the damn moderator for this forum? Get that spam crap out of here. The first page is filled with it. I've sensed for several months now that this forum is slowing down. Perhaps that means Vonage is doing a better job and people don't need to come here for extra support. However, the administrator and/or moderators should delete the dang spam right away if they want this site to continue to be credible.

A simple captcha on the registration page would help.

I agree whole-heartedly. I PM'd the moderator and didn't get a reply although he read it. I also don't know where Mr. O'Connor is. Many of the non-forum news, reviews, etc have not been updated since July! It seems like the administrators of the forum have just gone on hiatus.

Maybe they need to add some more moderators, or at least some of us that are on the site regularly to help remove this crap. If it would get removed quicker, it wouldn't turn up so often.

I've made some changes to some filters which I believe will greatly limit the current spam.

For those of you that have offered to Mod, I will reach out to you on Monday.

Thank you,
Dan

I see you put a captcha in the login, good move.

Yeah, I hated to do that... because I do not like to hinder a true forum member’s user experience on the site.

Truth is, it was that and some other adjustments that I do not want to telegraph.

I am sure that a few spammers are still in the system, so it is not over, but it should be limited and I can use data about them once they post to further refine my tools.
