Please ignore the SPAM Private Messages (FIXED AND WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN)

Other forums had the same problem with the same username profilicus. It's not a real user. I block most robotic registrations because they normally try to add a website link which isn't an available option on registration any more (but the robots don't realise it and their registrations get automatically deleted). This one was sending PMs to everyone with links to their website.

UPDATE: I've now blocked access to the private message with the link.

There have been more spam private messages with links to websites in Russia. I didn't receive them this time myself. I will try and stop them from happening again. I've blocked access to them now so you won't be able to read them so please delete them.

I'm working on this now so it won't happen again and the number of PM's you can send per day will depend on the number of posts you've made on the forum. Bots won't be able to send multiple PM's any more.

This is now fixed.

I banned a couple of the accounts that sent the spam (ferracont and freanour). Although they are bots and can't actually send messages any more, they were still entering the prize draw.

Looks like username alarent was another Private Message spammer bot (I googled it and other forums had the same username doing it but I'd fixed the problem by the time he registered so he couldn't do anything). It won the prize draw the other day so I've put the $0.14 back into the draw.
