How many times has the problem experienced by David in his post been reported, and still not attended too.

Anyway, thanks for the heads up. Are the spammers members?

Yes they are Taff, newly joined, fake members. There have been others that used the same exact wording in their messages in the past.

Brian, are you friends with Shane? If so, send it to him. Then he can take care of it. When you file a report below, it goes to Ben Baker.

I just hate it when things like that happen...

Maybe we should invite James Veitch to come on the forum and get him to give them the runaround!

For those who don't know who James Veitch is, just type his name on Youtube and watch his Scamalot series ;-)

If I built this, am I a Spammer?

Only if there’s a scam coming out the other side of it!!

I just saw that we have another Spammer, looks like they’re trying to promote some nerdy gaming site? We’re a bunch of middle-aged Guitar builders, if it doesn’t pertain to cbg’s or handmade music, then it doesn’t belong here!!
