    Shelby Moneer at MRF posted a message today asking us to let him know when we see spam postings. I am moving his message to new thread so it will be easier for everyone to find when needed.

    =========== Original Message =====================

     

    Hi Linny,

    Several MPIPers contact me directly when they notice spam on the bulletin board. I delete these posts immediately, so I'm not sure how or to whom you have reported spam in the past.  Please feel free to let me know if you see something we've missed. You can email me directly at smoneer@melanoma.org. I try my best to look through MPIP posts every day or two for spam but I can't possibly catch all of it. Our new website allows us to delete all of the spam much faster than before and we are continuously working to decrease the amount of spam that gets through. Again, we can't possibly stop all of it, but I assure you, we are trying our best.

    Thanks,

    Shelby – MRF

      She (Shelby) does a good job.  When I can I copy a spam post and email  it to her and she checks both the post and the poster.  The reason we started having the character verification a few yeaars ago was the spammers.  I have seen laately that they restaarted, but this stije at least they haave to do more work to get the spaam in.  The weekends and nights are the worst because  she has to have a home  life and not be on here 24  hours a day.  Email her a copy of the posts and she will usually tke care of the the next weekday.

       

      Thanks Shelby.    POW, thanks for bringing this out as a seperate topic.
