I'm pretty sure he's not a mod on all other forums.

At the top right of each post, there's an "l" in a red triangle. If you click on that, it takes you to a report form for spam, porn, etc. Whether that report goes straight to Brad Batt and how often Brad checks those reports, well, I don't know. Maybe somebody can ask Brad and give him a heads-up that we're getting more of this crap lately.

I think this might be a better way of dealing with the problem rather than going after Bob. Bob can delete but Brad can ban.

I sent Brad an email a while ago aboutthe softball forum. :(

Right. Only General, Baseball, Basketball. I've offerred to Brad to help with the others, and explained to him that when I "delete as spam" the poster isn't banned, as is supposed to happen. And, I topld him about the persistence of this particular spammer.

That sends an email to me, and to othe rmods (if there are any). I don't know if it goes to Brad.

Maybe you should mention to Brad that he should make sure that they do go to him. If you aren't able to unload these jerks when deleting their posts, then Brad needs to be on top of it a heckuva lot quicker imo. Either that or give you the ability to ban 'em. Seems to me that it's a heckuva lot of work for you to delete a post and then have to e-mail Brad to dump the poster, especially when there's multi porn posts by different poster names. Just a thought.

These porn bots ruined McGriffs when they weren't dealt with. Brad has a problem and he needs to do something about it.

I think it was a little more than the postings that ruined that site. Then again it was a huge problem and these are not making this place very family friendly when they sit up for hours without anything done about them.

Peace

I'd be willing to help bob out on this front if help is needed; just taking out the spam of course.
