Is there a forum moderator or administrator here?
I have noticed posts by beee2q that are clearly advertising. One is for wholesale handbags and the other is for World of Warcraft.
This forum will be overrun with posts like this if it isn't monitored by someone that can block and/or delete them. Banning the person posting them is also an option.

I just reported these bogus posts to the moderator. We will see if anything is done to remove this stuff.

Thanks Hoosierguy, I sent him/her a message as well. I'd hate to see this forum get overrun with spam.
I looked through the member list but only found one administrator.

I think I saw 3 adm. and one that was on line today but I've never seen a post from them. They must either be the corperate world or the folks that designed the site. At least I feel better knowing that someone is watching the growth.

I sorted the member list by group and saw that there are 4 admins. I'm going to send a private message to each in hopes that one will take some sort of action to protect the forum.

Good question...but something I learned a long time ago is "don't try to control what's really out of your control" it'll just drive you crazy.

I agree the forum should be watched but my concerns are that they get some "hot dog" on here with a big ego that wants to be the "new sherrif" in town.

This is a fun forum even though it's hard to follow sometimes and look at the friendships being built without really ever meeting in person. So really the forum is working in that way. I guess I'm saying...sometimes change is just change and not all change is good.

You said it Dave and like you said we don't need anyone who thinks they now what this forum needsmore than we do, it is working as it is but if everybody would refrain from posting comments in the wrong thread it would be better organized for sure, it just takes self control not a thread zar.

I hope the admin people are paying attention. I have been rving for over 20 years and this forum is great. I am stuck in the working world for 10 more years. But those of you who are blessed to travel now are always welcome at Lake Waco, TX. I always hot coffee, cold water and the WELCOME mat is out.

I love Texas...

This is what makes this forum GREAT...the friendships and common interests.

I don't know if I had anything to do with it, but, the bogus posts disappeared from the forum shortly after I sent a message to the moderator yesterday.
