AdminGirLX,
has been banned... It is a bit like playing whack a mole.

[David A. Goldfarb]

Make sure you get--

trueLadyAdmin

who doesn't show up as "banned."

Is there a way to clean up the RSS feeds after a spam thread is removed? I was faced with a giant screen of hardcore porn in my Google Reader window this evening after checking the Hybridphoto new posts RSS feed.

[jd callow]

Yes there is Jordan. I may not have deleted the post entirely, next time I will. If you get the feed before I can delete it it will still show. I delete and ban the users and threads as soon as I get notice of them so there shouldn't be too much lag time between the post and my deletion.

Thanx guys and try to bare with me on this as we find a way to keep these guys out.

I'm assuming the 6 private messages I have in my inbox, the latest one claiming to be an "important message from the forum administrators" are all from spammers. How can I get rid of them?

[jd callow]

Katharine,
When you view your inbox all messages will have an unchecked box in the upper right-hand corner. Select the messages you want to delete and then scroll down the the the drop down box and choose delete and press 'go'.

[Katharine Thayer]

Sorry to be so dense, but what drop down box, where? I'm not seeing anything obvious and have clicked on just about everything on the screen to no avail.

[jd callow]

The drop down is at the bottom of the page and has the words "Selected Messages:" next to a form field with the words "Move to Folder..." followed by a button that is labeled "Go"
