Can you give more details so we don't mess up?

Thanks! Makes sense now.
Just report the spam. We are being hit hard by Chinese spammers daily, we catch 99% of them, but a couple will occasionally get through.

I saw those come blasting through last evening. I just left them alone. Didn’t make any sense.

Many start out just posting random letter and couple numbers, example g59, R17 ect which bypasses spam filters and then they return and fill in the Chinese spam so if you see threads with just random letter and couple numbers report it too.

They usually get through late in the evening. Long paragraphs of Chinese characters. Impossible to miss.
Usually after I go to bed and before Jeff wakes up. TNMountains catches a lot of them during that time.

Luckily, I can remove lifetime bans if an accident happens we don't have to get admins assistance.

Report 1 post? Or report each post... same spammer most of the time.
If the same spammer then just need one report, but it's not a big deal if we receive more than 1 report on the same spammer.

During this last attack I reported the User Name, saved time.

On another detecting forum I moderate on we are getting lots of spammers, but the Admins are catching most before they can register. These hits are coming from all over the globe, not just China!
