    Definitely uncheck that box in the preferences, so you don't receive ALL new posts.

    I only get a few selected emails, related to threads that I posted in. And even most of those, I "unwatch" after a time.

    I do two thing that keep down spam:
    1) report it, unreported spam stays for days. Reported spam has a much shorter lifespan.
    2) click on the spammers Icon and ignore. Now click New Posts, all his are gone (for you)

    Report anything you dislike: Spammers, bullies, duplicate threads, yourself if you realize you posted in the wrong place, etc.

    Some things the moderators cannot do, only Danny can and he does get busy. For better or worse, he has decided not to take donations, and that does mean that he can't afford a new server as often as we freeloaders would like.

    Just keep reporting the spam. We're cleaning it up as soon as we see them.

    Really? Sigh.

    You can change it in your account t settings on the website to receive only threads you subscribed to.

    Apparently the spam blocker is crappy because your posts aren't blocked. LOL!

    Thanks. This seems to be the most appropriate thing for me to do. I was not aware you could post and not be a member.

    You can't post if a person is not a member. (Only "bots" can do that.)

    And what is a newsfeed? I never get any.
