tdr170 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 (edited) Just thought I would bring this up as today I received an email that looked like forum reply Email. It states that PerlongFiona has just posted a reply to a topic that you have subscribed to titled "Unable to change copyright info on footer". However when I looked at the post no reply so I searched the name and found that this person was banned. Spam Or Not.

Mike Kranzler Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Hi tdr170, This user did in face reply to your thread, which is why you received that email. However, I quickly saw this and not only deleted the posts, but banned the user outright. In this situation, the forum did work as it should, but it was just a matter of a spammer replying to your post, and the fact that I banned it quickly so you no longer saw the post cluttering up your topic. I hope this clears things up for you. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdr170 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 Thanks Mike: I went to thread and did not see a reply, Then I searched the user name and noticed they were banned, I could not tell when they were banned so I assumed this was spam. Yes that clears things up I am glad I posted this here, I appreciate your fast reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Kranzler Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I'm glad I could help, I just wish these spammers would realize that the entire forum is no-follow, and thus of no use to them. Happy Friday! -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
