No guys, we dont care where people come from. But if you chase after enough spammers, you realize that they follow a certain pattern. One thing they do is post they are from somewhere other than India or maybe China. But if you check the IP address, you know where they are from. And in his introductory post, he pretended he couldnt speak English very well. But I read a couple of his posts, and he actually speaks English better than I do.
Members never see the spam. Mods and admins delete it
He had two links in his signature, so he was spamming already.
Hopefully he doesnt anymore.
And now you have a look into the life of an administrator or mod.

Re: Hej Alla

OK, I changed his location to where he posted from.

Doing further due diligence, the link in his sig IS from Västerås, Sweden.

So, it's entirely possible he is "from" Sweden, but not "in" Sweden.

Life would be so much easier if, when folks registered, the computer took their picture and filed it in their profile and did a "whois" on their IP address. But then what would admins do?

Re: Hej Alla

What does it matter? If he is from India and wants to claim Sweden???...

I mean for location right now I would have to put...smallish cubicle in land from the Florida coast...but I might be feeling delusional and say Gotham City...my posting is still the same...no?

Gotten rid of my fair share...but didn't really care what they put down on location...I normally just cut them...I mean, they can spam us from Main Street USA and it would be all the same.

Yes, but they have gotten a bit trickier. I like to cut them off at the ankles. Location can be a quick clue.
