MannInBlackk did it to me also. I clicked the receipt button but did not visit his link.

I've gotten 3 or 4 of those in the last week. By the time I log on, the user that sent them seems to be banned already.

Isn't there a setting on the admin side of the site that disables posting of links for members with less than "x" amount of posts? I think that would slowdown the spamming influx we've seen lately....

I'm not on the admin side of things, so I asked the question in the support team forum. Hopefully Dave (RapidTransit) come back again today and answers it.

Let me start by saying I understand the reason for the minimum post count and PM restrictions. TBird, your instructions say to mark the message and delete it. When I try to delete the message, it tells me I am restricted. So, because I don't post unless I have something useful to say, that makes my post count practically nothing. I don't post just for the sake of posting so I can jack up my post count. All I want to do is delete the crap that I get from these trolling forum idiots. So, if I'm not allowed to do it, can someone do it for me?

Thanks
