@admin...SPAM is driving me nuts!!

[bright sparks]

You seem really annoyed at this Bright, so please don't bite my head off!!! LOL

However, this is my 2 cents.....as much as the spam threads are annoying, I don't really get why it's a big deal? I just click "new posts" and the posts I haven't read yet, pop up. I have a bit of OCD so I don't like to see the spam threads in bold so I click on it, see it's spam and than go back to the previous page and keep reading the new threads until I am done.

I haven't really explored this site though so maybe I am missing threads and don't even realize it?

I haven't seen much drama on here but I do agree with wonderwiper. In the short time I've been a part of this forum, I have seen many threads on the same topic. I am guilty myself of starting a topic that's probably been over done too though so I understand how/why it happens. I still really enjoy the site and the spam threads don't stop me from coming to it.

I'm really frustrated to be honest. I first hand have had threads go unnoticed due to spam so it really does drive me crazy. I also find it frustrating that people are like so what it's no big deal. That's fine you don't have to agree with me but I don't have to be quiet about it if I disagree with others opinions towards the matter. It's not personal to anyone just me venting away. I've been here since it started and within the last 6 to 12 months we have lost many original members and there have undoubtably been trouble causers on here and there are certain members who ONLY comment negatively and are harsh about it when they do.....I can look past that because we are all human and aren't going to see eye to eye all the time but this spam issue has me worked up as it's a much worse problem now. If it wasnt growing in frequency and only occasional then I could have my little temper tantrum and move on but it's really ticking me off. I am happy that it isn't effecting your quality experience here 5LM but I am also not the only one annoyed at things.
