Today received an email notification on topic "Adding soot effects to track"...clicked provided "newest post" link http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewtopic...20&e=89020 & was sent to a notice advising I was "...not permitted to view this forum.", though selecting either of the other two http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewtopic...=17&t=4860, http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=17, took me to the proper thread...but there was no new post to trigger a notification ??? Prolly a random event, but figgered you should know it occurred. 10-Q Bob C.

Well Bob, a spammer hit four threads today and they were quickly dispatched thanks to an alert member notifying us and a moderator that got up early this morning. By the time you got here, those posts were removed, but we couldn't do anything about your notifications. The only way we can prevent this is to moderate the posts of new members, and we don't want to start doing that. Normally, we don't delete the spam, we move it to a protected area so that we have a record of what went on. That's why you didn't have permission to view the post.

Sorry about that, but at least now you know....
