They are called spammers and usually they are spambots that make the posts. The mods. delete them as soon as we see them. It is everyones responsibilty to report these so we can get them off the boards as soon as possible. Barry

I personally think if they get ignored, maybe they will get bored and stop wasting thier time in posting???

They don't get ignored. they get deleted if you send them to the mods. Thats what the triangle is for in the posts.

Many are not real people posting, and they certainly won't get bored and stop. It is like spam email, basically the same thing. They don't get bored and stop. It is a business.
What I wish people would not do is respond to that and bounce it back up to the top. They are not coming and reading responses to threads. Just report it
