i can understand your views chaps
but......... (there's always a but isn't there lol)
the forums are usually called 'support' forums.

but yes i also hear what your saying though about how ppl just come on get and answer and never been seen again

i know my form i have over 200 members
but prob about 30 visit regularly
the rest, some i've never seen on there, the others just come on when they need help/pray etc

but hey thats what forums are like unfortunately

especially those open to all with no closed section to it lol

at least this place doesn't seem to get spammed that much

unless the staff do a brill job

i get around 5 ppl a week minimum joining my forum
but i use stop spam forum, you join and then get a key
enter it into the module that you install on your forum and any user it checks and lets you know if they are on their register or not
so far it has caught every single on thats tried to join

not bad for a free site either

We have some spam on here too but members doing great job and raporting it very quickly

There was spam printed on a t'shirt the other day - does that count

That's a new one on me, when did we last get spam on here???

long time a go but it was raported and removed...

That's ok then, certainly shouldn't have been any at all in recent months. Probably down to 1 or 2 spam members a week now but I stop these with the moderation,

I don't spend half as much time on here lately as it's continuously the same questions coming up. Like dreamglass says, much of the time it only takes a little research. I just tend to skim over the post titles to see if there is anything interesting being asked or posted. Much of this is due to lack of time as well...... I shouldn't be on here now with the amount of work I have on.
