This is a great site!
It kills me when folks ask me, did you get my message on Facebook? And I reply, I don't use Facebook!
I want to say thanks to those that share their knowledge here, I enjoy the reading, and am beginning to open up with some of mine too.

Well it seems that the spammers had a ball in the forums this morning. Big thanks to the fine folks that took the time to report them. I have deleted all of the threads and BS accounts. Have a great day!

Whitelist modern, civilized, free countries and range ban everything else. Forum members don't see the vast amount of spam that doesn't make it in.

The chopper community is small and geographically concentrated in modern Western civilization. The rest don't matter so no worthwhile advert revenue will be lost. This is an American forum with a few posters from Canada and Europe and near nil from elsewhere. Of the elsewheres most are modern countries like Japan, Australia or NZ.

The rest don't matter. For example Russia and China are enemy countries permanently engaged in cyber attacks on the US.

Shithole map. See dark red? Range ban. Then look for more areas to ban. Be proud of every threat range you block.

Don't mention what ranges you ban so no one snivels. Your forum, your rules and that includes rules you don't publish.
