What's the deal with spammers.......? I mean to go through all the trouble of registering only to be removed.....seems like a lot of work. I guess the laziness in me keeps me honest.

We really seem to be getting hit lately. If you see anything, send me or any of the mods a PM with a link to the offender and he will be stripped naked, flogged and sent walking.

What I can't figure out is why someone would send a whole bunch of people a link to STUPID crap. At least make it interesting. I don't understand the psychological reward in sending worthless links. ??? Guess that's why I don't spam. (I agree with you, Deej; too much effort.)
