I find it unbelievable, there are several posts that are clearly spam, yet all of them show numerous views. These are probably the same people that end up with viruses on their computers and answer the Nigerian Get Rich e-mails. As PT Barnum said, there's a sucker born every minute (at least I think it was PT Barnum).

Why I looked...

I was looking for a "report Spam" or something like that. I almost clicked "report violation", but then noticed the other views, figured it was already reported, and decided the webmaster would be just as annoyed by 100 reports as he would by the spam in the first place. 4 more months until sailing...

How?

How are these post making it on here? you have to sign in to even look at the post, so I would think the webmasters would know where they are coming from. All I want for Christmas is for all spammers to die!

Wasn't it Halberg-Rassy the last time too?

Remember about a month ago or so when we had the same garbage hit our forums? You don't have to sign in by the way.

SPAM

When was the last one of these that you saw? I log on to catalinaowners.com, but I look at 24 hour activity (not Catalina only)and I can't remember seeing any of those posts. I just went back 5 days (72 posts), and every one had a legitimate looking tittle.

When notified, Phil takes it out pronto.

You don't even see most of the stuff that pops up, but Phil does and reacts quickly.
