Why is it that this site is suddenly being hit with naff American inspired get rich quick type adds I wonder, I hope this kind of spam stops as it's pathetic if they think people with RA or OA are in need of a bit of red neck advice.

    I heard a report on the radio that over the Christmas and New Year period the amount of spam being sent out virtually halved (I think that's right). No-one knows why, and it hasn't picked up yet. It's easy enough to report/ignore.

    Can anyone remember what the old forum looked like? DD

    In the famous words of John Macenroe: You can't be serious Tony :shock:

    We've never had this problem before, but we are getting these scammers practically every day now. I think we should give them a very hard time, and tell them to leave us alone :!: :shock: :shock:
