You might notice when you're posting, a strange message about a banlist. This is a recent and unusual error, I know nothing about. Needless to say, posting messages / responses seems unaffected, so ignore that message if it comes up, and I'll get Admin onto it.

We have had recent issues with our ban control page. This was due to the large number of banned email addresses and IP address ranges we included in the system. We are currently working on several other measures to make our forums secure for everyone to enjoy and to keep the spammers out.

Yours in health,

That's the nature of what goes on behind the scenes. There's so many of these spam I.P's being used, it takes a long time, and patience to make strides into cutting down on this.

At one point we were enjoying no spam sometimes for up to 2-3 days, if anyone actaully noticed Razz, and many times maybe 1-2 a day.

Obviously circumstances have made our good work difficult to keep up, but it's been important and appreciated that memebrs have stayed true ot Shapefit, and been laregely unpurturbed by what's been posted.

We can't control spam content, we can only deal with such content when it happens, but without good member participation, sites like this die off, and spammers carry on using other regular sites, webblogs, or disused internet guestbooks, to feed their vile addicition.

So it's with appreciation to members that I write this. I used to belong to a site where this happened, the guy in charge didn't care towards the end, and eventually I was one of about 3-4 regulars, a small band of drifting members, and about 20-30+ spams a day, which for some reason I used to get rid of, I suppose to protect any young users / visitors, from some of the more nasty stuff, so it is appreciated that members are remaining here, making the site good, and giving the site their endorsement.

Thanks Smile.

Oh and to other unwanted people reading this, e.g. Spammers. Go to hell Razz Razz
