<description>Hello all,
&#60;br&#62;
&#60;br&#62;As you may have noticed we were hit quite badly by spammers recently. We&#38;#39;ve now put in place some small changes to weed out automatic or &#34;robotic&#34; posting of messages by spammers. Every time you post you must now enter the text from an image, the idea being that if you are a piece of spamming software you will not be able to understand the image properly. This should deal with 90% of the problem messages.
&#60;br&#62;
&#60;br&#62;To deal with the other 10% we are soon to put in place a moderation system (been trying to set this up for a while), and a proper login system for users - with a view to eventually removing guest posting rights. As soon as the moderation system is ready we&#38;#39;ll be emailing some of you and asking you to be moderators. More details will follow soon.
&#60;br&#62;
&#60;br&#62;For the time being please continue to use the &#34;report this as spam&#34; link for postings that are spam or generally nonsense postings.
&#60;br&#62;
&#60;br&#62;Cheers,
&#60;br&#62;
&#60;br&#62;Admin.</description>
