Hey everyone, don't open the teen boy topic. I should have known, but duh. Does anyone know how to report that stuff?

You have to click the exclamation mark icon on the post. I did that, mods should remove it soon.

Members...........it's so unfortunate that people have nothing better to do with their lives, isn't it? I have not been at any site where this doesn't happen. Some more than others.

It's not even a person that posts this but a computer program....

There are programs that will go an create accounts of literally thousands of forums and post pictures or random garbage for the purpose of driving website traffic back to their websites. It's just forum Spam, and there is an ongoing battle with it. That is why when you register an account anywhere you see what is normallycalled "CAPTCHA" a set of characters that may be hard to read an you have to type in what the image says. This forum has it as well, I will look into new spam prevention techniques for PhpBB and see what has come out in the last month.... Between the captcha on this site the great mods here, there is relatively little spam. I'm sorry if anyone was offended by the post......I didn't see it myself

another way to report this type of stuff to us moderators is also to copy/paste the link and send one of us a pm

Actually, for me, that is the best way. If you send me a link, I can go directly to the problem. If I just get a title, I have to search...and the ! button, in theory, is good...I don't get any direct email about flagged topics...so they are often overlooked. Please do send a PM or email to a moderator (or all moderators) and include the link.
