We hate SPAM!... & A Thank You!

I banned permanently 5 user names this evening for spamming this site.
You guys and gals are doing great in reporting this stuff.
The ones I just banned, join up, mingle a bit then post links to online parts houses.
Keep reporting these things, even if you are unsure if it's spam or not. By reporting it, it brings it to admin's attention when we might otherwise miss it.

Thanks gang for helping to keep us spam free!

Responding to spam is one of the worst things you can do as it validates your email address as active. That will likely increase your spam volume.
