Hey everyone,

I noticed that in the past few weeks I, and a few other members (the ones that alerted me) have been getting spam messages sent as PM's.

I want to apologize if you have received one of these spam messages (most of them are for Russian drugs)

I also want to clarify, AVIC411 will NEVER send you spam! This is simply a user exploiting the PM system, and it has nothing to do with myself, or this website.

Thank You,
Jason

Not I.
The importance of punctuation is the difference between "I helped my uncle jack off a horse." and "I helped my uncle, Jack, off a horse."

I've gotten four spam PM messages in the last two weeks. Any chance of implementing a type of security code before a user can join, or before they can send a PM?

Yeah sorry about that, the weird thing is that there is a security code when creating an account, as well as email verification. They must be actual people spamming the forum.

Wow, I wish I had nothing better to do with my time! Guess maybe it's time to revoke their membership?
