I am usually looking first in the AM ( I check on the bottom and also the number of views) and have been reporting almost daily(I guess a few of us are) and find the deletions are fairly rapid. No question it is epidemic and it appears almost exclusively in the Trip Report catagory. I have suggested that perhaps the Trip Report space be placed lower down the line...see what happens????

Al, sometimes I think you and I tie for being the earlybirds on this side of the pond! wink.gif

I will continue to report.

Thank goodness. How I wish these people would get lives/ BUT, most probably, they are automated SPAM bots and have NO souls.

I've noticed it, too. Karen, I haven't been reporting it because I know you've been on and are no doubt seeing it, too. Do you still want us to report it?

I am not the only person on the delete crew!~

It would seem that one of our France located viewers would be the first to see one of these spam items and if they made a report to delete (the only word needed on the report) it should remove them the soonest. Of course nobody viewing knows that a report has been made which would make it easier if we did.

The spam has been really bad on here the last few days. Is it being deleted as soon as it is noticed?

KAREN.......I too have been thru the ups and downs of Topic Notifications. For what it's worth it seems to be ok right now and has been for a while on my PC.



Al: I am delighted to hear that. At least, we're doing something right. ;-)

About six - nine months ago I stopped getting BP discussion e-mail notifications . The BP technical people said it wasn't due to anything on their end and I couldn't find anything on my end, so I lived with -or more accurately - without them. Lo and behold the've reappeared! Go figure - the wonders of technology. . . ph34r.gif


We keep upgrading the message board. Mimi -- I do NOT understand why you are needing to sign in EACH time unless you've disabled your "cookies."

Re notifications -- please access the tab "forum options." You can specify how often and when you'd like to be notified.

Hope this helps! Once again, I am no tech person. Far from it.
