+1; I'll be happy to volunteer as well. Would be a real shame to just let the spammers have this forum.

This is nothing compared to the snipping and hostility at rec.bicycles.tech.

A few frequent writers there take great pleasure at throwing shite around, otherwise have little to say. Small weenies is my guess.

I would rather deal with the spam here than with some of the people that populate those groups. __________________ De Rosa Planet Campagnolo Per Sempre! PAOLO BETTINI CAMPIONE DEL MONDO x 2!

This will allow everyone to eliminate spam from their account. The typical argument is that spamers can keep creating new names and my solution is let them try to keep up with my ignore button. They will soon move on to an easier target. nickcach
