|
Hi - I just signed on here after lurking a bit and was wandering along through the members list to see where some of the other folks are from. I noticed you have some "spam registrations" in there that you may want to delete.
I've had trouble with these at a site I admin, where they sign on and sometimes toss in a couple random posts then disappear, leaving a profile with a website link to a porn/gambling/business site. The purpose is to make search engines rank them higher by having a higher number of 'mentions' of their website online. Sometimes they try to put it in their signature as well.
I would recommend you just scan along them and see what the websites the profiles point to are - I think you'll find them pretty quick.
Lovely site here, btw! I know I don't have much time to be posting myself, but I have enjoyed your presence here.
