I'm willing to put up with the odd "INTERNET POKER IS RIGGED ITS A FACT YOUR ALL GOING TO LOOSE IT ALL IN SCAM ONLINE SCAMS CNN KNOWS" post here, but a bunch in a row is starting to get crufty. Is this not supposed to be a moderated forum? Is there some way that we can deep-six these nuisance posts? If it is a question of manpower, I'd be happy to volunteer as a moderator, as I'm sure a large number of the regulars here would be willing to as well.

Hi,

The forum is moderated. However, we do appreciate and sometimes rely on UPF participants to notify us when questionable posts occur.

Regards,
UPF Tech

There have also been a number of new post that are just "plugs" for websites. Like the one directly above this post. I am not sure about the rules to posting on this site or if that is allowed. It definetly cheapins the experience if you know what I mean. My question is should those post be reported as well?

Hey Stdioh,

I already added my 2 cents over a month ago on this matter by
e-mailing Mike Caro himself.

People just have to talk bad about other people and their success, and you know why that is? Because some people just suck!

They are humans and although they are pessimistic and bitter little
A-holes, they are still being allowed their freedom of speech.
Oh well, I'll just try to ignore all those "scam" posts and keep focused on the good and informative ones that are written here every single day.

That's my 2 cents.

This is probably the best advice. If those posts don't get any responses, they will taper off. People like that are looking to push buttons, and it's no fun for them if they appear to be invisible.
