      Does anyone here know an effective way to prevent these spammers from invading this forum? The latest is john243… I have marked most of these posts as spam, but am not sure what else to do.

      It infuriates me that people would come to a site where people are in many cases fighting for their lives and then they get these promises of miracle cures – trying to take advantage of people grasping for a solution.

          Amen to that! I noticed several spam messages from the John123 character last night and reported them as well. This caused the post to be removed, but only from my view it seems.

                Dear Kevin and others,

                We try to catch spam on the bulletin board but we definitely miss some. You can always let me know by sending me an email [email protected]. I will make sure it is deleted and also reported as spam. I'll also block the user. 

                Thanks for letting me know about this one!

                Sincerely,

                Shelby – MRF
