New Members - First Post Info
We are suffering from overseas spammers setting up accounts that look quite legitimate, but then begin spamming the site.
So unfortunately this means that as we only have three mods who work full time we have had to amend the site settings so that your first post will have to be approved.
We'll be as quick as we can to get your post up for the rest of the forum to enjoy.
And spammers... honestly, how many members of a campervan forum are likely to buy shonky designer handbags?

Very wise.
I saw the offending post - very odd and out of place.

Well we (seem) at least to have done better overnight at least,
going forward with an extra mod and some of you contacting me directly when you see an attack we can keep on top of it.
A balancing act in being both accessible to visitors and keeping out raiders at same time,
hmmmm
must ask Rubberrat how they achieve this fine balance in Norfolk on a daily basis
