Re: Quick Support Question

We are working behind the scenes on installing a few modifications that will help the problem out.

Thanks for being patient everyone. Worst case scenario is we switch hosts (no downtime).

Re: A Complaint/Suggestion

You bring up a valid point. So far, the community here has been pretty respectful to each other. We will go ahead and drop the word replacement for 'gay' as there are legitimate uses.

Half the spam comes from a real person who signs up, then turns on the spambot. Also, spambots have figured out how to 'beat' the reCaptcha and similar broken word barriers.
