I'm sorry we've had to go down this route but from now on, new members will need to be manually approved by a board admin. Clearly this won't affect existing members but it will mean that new members are unable to post until they've been approved in this way.

The idea of this of course is to stop the relentless (and pointless) spamming of the forum with unrelated posts. It might mean, however, that we need to ask a few questions in order to establish that new members are indeed people interested in the amazing world of composite materials and related projects, and not just tiresome pushers of pointless fake IDs and pretend bank notes (really?!).

Fingers crossed folks!

Thank you!
I think that you can also create a button to report spam by other people here in the forum..
