Still getting video ads most times I am messaging, occasionally on the home page.

Tiff mentioned getting them in the messaging section too.

The Forum's spam program catches quite a few spammers when they first put up their threads, however, some of them slip through. If a moderator isn't online when they show up, they are there for the world to see. When this happens, rather than replying to the spam thread, please report it. There's a button for you to click at the bottom of every post box - "Report concern". It does no good for you to reply on the thread, because these threads are put up by computers, not real people. No one sees your post but us Forum members.

Thank you and have a nice day! :p

No, I was talking about the original subject in this thread - the bot spammers that start threads about odd ball stuff like muscle building, viagra, etc.

But if you see an offensive ad, report it to Josh. He can pick and choose the type of ads that show up on the Forum.

I don't know about that. All I know is when I saw ads advertising a filipino ladies dating service I took a screen shot of it, sent it to Josh and he fixed it so it didn't come on anymore.
