rps Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 I would support a change that required us to use a real last name. Some discussions might become more civil if we remove anonymity. (Thank goodness for spell check on that one)
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted October 5, 2009 Author Root Admin Posted October 5, 2009 Would be tough to change those who are here already.... I've been thrilled with the new members so far that have registered yesterday and today. Even the spammer who tried to register last night - screen name - buy rx viagra He made himself pretty clear!

Brian K. Shaffer Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 At least its easy with the dummies that use similar catch phrasey types of slogans for names. I wonder if you can make it more difficult to get in the front door.... like a questionairre of real easy fishing questions..... just an idea - Brian Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.
jjtroutbum Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Thanks Phil and Dan. For all that you do. It could never be said enough! Suggestion their are automated filters. The ones that make new registers type in a couple of words concealed to Bots/jelly filled breakfast morsels but recognized by the old human eye. Might take a little work out of the screening process.

et84 Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Thanks Phil and Dan. For all that you do. It could never be said enough! Agreed. This is the only blog/forum that I am a member of- mainly because of the vast amount of information available, but also because there is an absence of hostility between members, and there are NO SPAMMERS!!! It's a lot of work to keep a forum clean from both spammers and people that are just downright rude. I think I speak for everyone when I say we are lucky to have admins who care enough to keep things that way. Great job, guys!! Keep up the good work!!

Eric Oh I think the hostility is still present.....you just aren't allowed to express it openly. Sombody could hate your guts and you'd never know it. Kinda like church.
