Spam warning
« on: June 05, 2006, 11:30:04 AM »
We have been getting a lot of spam lately that looks like innocent posts by guests.

I do delete them, now, even when they do have an answer.
So if you wonder why those posts have gone missing, it is because of that.

THANK YOU!!!!!  Anyone worth posting would come back when deleted, so only the bad guys will be lost.  Having IGKT shut down from a deadly "gangrene post" for a few days or even weeks by waiting for IGKT to look at the problem would be a loss to all.  However having it down for a day or two; we can adjust to.   Having a suspect post deleted to save the site... I hope that folks with real questions will understand and post again... that we should be able to adjust to.
 If I post somthing stupid (poorly worded) and it is deleted I'll be right back with a different wording.
 I am very glad that the days when the Forum was down were very short and I am so glad you folks worked so hard to restore it.  Without IGKT I'd be lost.  Maybe not lost but... Well, I could hide in the dark and just work knots in solitude... nasty habit.
