   You may have noticed that I've finally upgraded the StationRipper forums.  I had avoided it as there wasn't a way to bring along all users and posts - but WebWiz has a tool to do that now, so... :)

Sorry for all the issues the last year or so - the constant "attacks" by spammers (some posting hard-core XXX spam) had me doing just about anything to shut them down - which ended up making to tough to post in general.

This new forum will allow me to set moderation-only, so new posts (if set) would need to be approved before they show up.

I have re-enabled GUEST posting (FINALLY! Have not had that for a few years).  You can post as a guest, but all guest posts will need to be moderated before they will show up.  If you don't want to have to go through moderation, join up and then post.

I can also force moderation on other levels of users, but for right now have that turned off. If spam continues to be a problem, I'll start forcing more moderation.  I will still see the spam, but at least other users won't.

Thanks!

-Greg
