Default Ok Ill be the one to ask...

Is anyone else seeing the posts from various members who are writing in what I think is Vietnamese???

All have few recorded posts and none of them are in English, I am wondering if I have a virus or something? Just making sure everyone else sees it.

That or my partying days have finally caught up to me

I've seen them before. I believe the moderators usually make them disappear quickly.

as long as you don't see them driving cobras i think you'll be ok....

yes we all see them show up in threads, best to ignore as they are spammers or worse. when i see one i send the permalink to a mod to be dealt with. they usually are gone with-in a day.

It's the Chinese Bandits from "Hollywood Knights"....not Vietnamese.

Your partying days may have caught up to you, but not for this reason, 'cause I see them too (maybe my partying days caught up to me as well?). I think all forums have this problem to a certain degree and the moderators see them and delete the accounts.

Little known fact... Jamo and I shoot and clean 30 or 40 of these spam posts a day.

Most...you don't ever see.

Sometimes one slips thru the defenses.

If you discover one, simply use the Report a Post button in the upper right of the offending post ->

Please, do not respond to these posts or quote or comment on them... it just makes more debris for us to clean up.

Thanks

It actually is our full-time job. The computer build/repair and legal things are just past times.

We get paid $100 per spammer...double if they're in some weird alphabet.

We'd be stupid to do this for free.
