Spammer are posting at the end of existing threads.  It seems they are trying to avoid detection by the Moderators?

Should would be giving the Mods a hand and reporting them?  Or is it just another of their annoyances to make the Mods work harder?

Each time one of us gets on the site, we check all the new posts that have been posted.  So, I'd say we usually find most of the stuff.  Sometimes it takes long than others, depending on what any of us 3 are doing.  I know during the week things get checked out regularly, but weekends just depend on what the each of us are doing.  (hence, during boating season, not here much on weekends whistle )

I have to say I typically ignore the reports that are posted to my email, because I look at all new post each time I get on and clean up what I see. & there have been many times we may just ban a user before they even post, just by looking at their account (I did one today that was logged on, but hadn't gotten the spam up yet)

You do a fantastic job keeping the site for us.  If there is a way to help, let us know.  I see so much spam on a regular basis, it must keep you really busy.  I don't know if reporting it helps or gives you more to deal with so let me know if i should stop reporting it.

I can't thank you enough for this terrific site and appreciate your diligence and devotion!!!
