People selling everything from sneakers to medication, etc. But as soon as we see it the new member is banned and the post is moved into the moderators forum, or as Aaron put it, Area 51!!!! LOL

    Thanks Andy!

    I did notice one night,recently,a post that was trying to sell motorcycles and was obviously removed,within a couple of miuntes.

    You guys must be doing a good job,because that's the only one that I've noticed!

      Re: Why?

      Wow, this thread is interesting.

      As a somewhat "veteran" member.
      I don't think MOL is the same without Mike Phillips at all.
      He provided so much info, personality, and energy to the forum.

      TC, I don't really understand what threads you are referring to though in the Break Room...

      You need to experience just about every other online forum, then come back and see how much better MOL is, haha

      Whoever Meguiar's picks for Administrator, I am sure they will do a great job. I don't think MOL is worse or has downgraded at all without Phillips, but it is a little different...

        What is a spammer on a forum? Is it someone entering the forum just for the purpose of advertising something?

        It's not something I know much about.

        Well, I know of one that slipped by. Read this thread, specifically posts 8-10. Post #8 is the one that is spam. http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34206
