    You can hover your mouse cursor over the spammer and ignore their posts. I agree, moderators need to spend a little more time with the site.

    You can even use the report function within each of the posts and it should send an alert to the higher authority...

    This has happened in like the last day hasn't it? Because the site was down a few days ago now it's all spammed.

    Makes me think it was a hack or some kind of attack.

    The notices are filling up my mail box and I too am tired of it. I'm about ready to block everything the forum sends me.

    This is all news to me since I landed on the forum recently, however I usually look past them as they are part of the many adventures - just like in The Wizard of Oz...

    Were you getting these chinese posts? I got 60 of them, and that means I get 60 PriusChat emails. (n)As I'm writing this reply, the PriusChat site server shut down. I had to type this again.:mad: Also, I have to press post multiple times before I can actually post the reply, which creates duplicates. It seems like PriusChat servers are from the 90s. I love the forum though!
