There are at least FOUR new members who are definitely spam merchants; why have they been allowed to join????
God knows. I am gullible - how can you tell if a person is a troll. Agreed there are new names but how can you tell. I was suspicious of a person on Steph's post yesterday.
Hi qbjb yes there is glad someone else has spotted them. X
Hey Pergola that's one of them( trouble.) xx
I am a new member, hope you don't think I am trouble to anybody
Hi Missywissy welcome. Don't be daft you've hardly put anything on. He! He! X
Missywissy keep to the up to date posts I'm not trying to tell you what to do but it will help you. Xx
Lol....I'm new too missywissy.....but I'.m fairly normal....Well maybe a bit kooky at times but I definitely never trot over the rickety bridge!
Some of them have words from the spam emails in their account names - bit of a giveaway.
Edit: e.g. Vashikaran. I just took another look, think some of them have been deleted but there's still at least one still there.
so sorry,will do
There are 2 Vashikaran names and a couple of other suspicious ones. I just checked out their identity and a couple of them haven't posted anything ... yet!
I don't know how these group websites work but isn't there a way to filter or watch new members and remove them immediately if they post any spam? Must be possible surely ...
I've looked and there are a few that haven't opted since joining what's that all about?
CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT YOU MEAN BY OPTED. pOPPLEWELL
What constitutes a 'suspicious' name please? What are we looking for?
Hi Toci e.g. "vashikaran" is in one or two of the new account names last time i looked. This is some kind of weird black magic practice, the name of it being in all the spams from india - they would have had to take out new accounts in order to be able to do all those posts here. Bit slow on the uptake . . . 
It's really quite unsettling seeing them there, and waiting for them to start with their drivel. HU are trying to stamp this out, and I wish them the ingenuity to do it, and quickly! x
Aren't spam and trolls two different things? Which are we talking about here?
Spam is what we've been getting - drivel posted by idiots for their own potential gain or just to interfere with a website and drive people mad !!!
I think trolls are just nasty creatures who make derogatory comments to upset others deliberately - but I'm happy to be corrected if I've got it wrong ...

Hi I am fairly new as well and I have had loads of spam mail over the past couple of days and had a few more today. My only intention on her is to inform myself about COPD. And I acquired some very useful tips from the lovely people in this group. Thanks! x
Hang on in there digger uh, it'll all be ok soon and back to the lovely sight it really is. Don't be put off by the last couple of days.
Here's the place to learn
