Uh, duh, yep, that's a really common scenario isn't it? :rolleyes:

Now then, where does most spam originate from? The Phillipines, Korea and China.

Well there's a thing eh?

Their homepage and email address are to do with legal highs... so me thinks they are here to spam, not to chat ;)

Cant you just hit the ban button before they even get the chance to spam?

Unfortunately my powers of clairvoyancy aren't that advanced.

Ian has extensive spam filters set up on the forum which stops the greater majority getting through but there will always be a few who slip the net.

The USA is #1, followed by China, then Russia, UK & Germany.
The forum/comment spammer "hall of fame" list might look a bit different... Russia, Ukraine, Latvia, China, the Philippines, India, Pakistan... something like that.

Well i'd say this thread has run its course now....

..and as the IP from the OP is on a known spammers database, the obvious course of action is to be taken.

Closed.
