[quote name='Apotheoun' post='1841406' date='Apr 20 2009, 01:28 PM']The key to avoiding this problem in the future is to let your mail box fill up so that no one can PM you.

Wise idea. :yes: Then you can't use PM though. :(

If no one ever fell for it. People wouldn't do it. The point of spamming is to send out a billion messages......so it 100 people out of those billion fall for it......you'll make enough money to make it worth it.

Bottom line is enough people fall for it to keep spammers interested in spamming.

Okay, I may have fixed it. I moved everyone to "In Limbo (sorta)", but it should switch to the "Am I a phatmasser yet?" after your first post (assuming that you already have 10 posts).

But now, the "default" member group is the "In Limbo" group, so new members will be stuck in that until they reach 10 posts.

The reason is that the "In Limbo" does not have PM and email ability.
