Adrian,T The thing I noticed last night was that most of the mods (who are doing an excellent job by the way) also have it in their signature. If the spammer are actually posting more when you folks are not here, then perhaps a well scripted spammer is skimming those details, working out via scripted routines who and when the moderators where logged in, and then time their spams to occur outside that window. Or perhaps it's just an illusion as to how many actual spam posts occur when our protectors of all things "not desired or required" are not logged in. So perhaps, if the mod info was not published the would have one less bit of details to use. As I say just a thought. P sitting in silence - I suppose it could be called that - but isn't that what a moderator does in a debate or TV forum - they sit, observe and interact when required. Either or - It still amazes me that the spammers and other system posters continue with their junk mail and forum spams in the volumes and effort they goto get their advertising) into places, but I suppose if they get a .005% hit rate, that's still pretty good for them. As I say - just a thought and I think the amount of spam that I ever see here is so low it's not a problem. But the mods would know that better than I how much they delete each day.
