More Spam
Spam has increased somewhat recently unfortunately. It is always and arms race; as fast as you can create a security feature the spammers are creating ways to get past it. After a particularly large batch of spam a couple of weeks back I decided to change the prevention method for new accounts to re...

Spam, spam, spam
There has been a notable increase in spam recently, particularly over the past few days which took me a while to clear. As it happens I had just performed a software upgrade on another forum I have, and Sailsite was the next in line with the upgrade planned for tonight. I have now done this, so hope...

Re: Otter 530
Hi cweed, There's an icon on the left under the member details that looks like a head and shoulders with 'pm' next to it. That should bring up a similar page to the one to post a forum message for a private message. Depending on your preferences you may get an email notification of the message. Eith...
