What is going on w/recent posts

If I screenshotted just what I have done this week it would be 15-20 pages. It has never been this bad.

To all real members of the forum- if you are using the same username and password at this site as you do at other sites you need to change your passwords.

For all these new spam posters to gain access they had to have bypassed or disabled the new user approval process that Mr. Cotton used.

If these nefarious actors are inside the system there’s no telling what information they are accessing.

I'm not an expert on this, but maybe they hacked into Charles's account, and thus are able to "self-approve"....

What's unbelievable is the idea that somebody is actually going to go sign up for an online casino because of one of those posts!

Thank you Carl! We appreciate it very much.

And Happy Easter. I pray you had a wonderful day celebrating the resurrection of our Lord!

All the new users are new user names... not likely someone here lost a password.
They have access to self-approve new users, likely a forum hack or a Cotton account breach.

I could sure use everyone’s help. I know that Mr. Cotton’s is taking care of some personal business and is t available as he used to be. The traffic on the Forum has went down a little and so some of the Moderators don’t get to check in like they used to.

Today alone so far at 7:17PM I have deleted and banned 23 spammers.

With that being said when you see the post that we know does not belong here if you could you hit the “exclamation mark (!) in the top right corner of their post then I will be notified immediately and I can stop them before they post 7 or 8 more times. I may regret asking for this, but I can’t keep checking the Forum every hour. Ha!

One time a month my wife and I take the members active list and we pray for each of you by name. I may not know you, but you are part of what I think is a valuable community.

Thank each of you participate and those read and seldom lost you are so valuable.

God Bless Each Of You,
Carl
