Thanks, jpkansas and everyone else. Me and Jupiter are on this on a daily basis now. You can take a break from your vigilance, with thanks!

Nobody's serious about getting rid of these "people".  I posted a list a month ago in this thread and they haven't been deleted yet.

Me and Jupiter are de-activating obvious spammers a few at a time every day or so until our developers can come up with a way to do it through an algorithm.  Fortunately, most of the spam members are passive (they're not posting up a storm to drive traffic to their affiliate sites and whatnot) so the impact they're having is minimal.



The main reason to eliminate them is because they artificially inflate our membership numbers.  Most of them never log in past the one time it takes to activate their account.



We're getting to them  -- but there are higher priority things to do that have a bigger impact on the health and success of the site, as well.



Best,

There are about a dozen posts on the food board right now. Of course, if you're hungry for some tennis shoes that's the board for you.
