Guys,

As you're well aware, there are spammers on CD who'd love nothing more than to proliferate garbage here. Please please do not encourage people like these by posting replies to their stupid posts.

Sometimes its hard to tell if someone's genuinely got a stupid question or its an idiot trying to spam the forum. Based on my experience, I've always found that it is the latter. Please be extra vigilant in reading questions and don't respond to garbage.

We'll need your help to contain the spammers.

Some things to look out for

1. Newly created alias. (less than a week old)
2. Question either does not make sense or is VERY obvious and can be very easily searched on google or yahoo or live.
3. One or two-line questions that are shabbily composed and give no context on anything and would prove useless to others.
4. Question seems to be leading to a ridiculous discussion.

If you see something like this PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND, don't even advise the person not to spam. Please PM me, I'll take care of it.

Thanks very much in advance for your co-operation. Also feel free to PM me if you have other ideas on proactively keeping the forum free of these guys.

Regards,
BL
