Thanks Alex! I see you out there, flushing out those spammers.
I guess the never,never,never ending thread has ended.
Oh, the ironing of ironies. :P

It did not work for me . I can't hear what being said. why can't you tell people that do not know what it mean?
I suggest that you avoid from using members' names here as a joke. Only if you are serious about it, thank you.

Oops, sorry. I missed that you had this one already.
Over the past 6 days all the BYC family of forums have been hit hard with spam... LOTS of spam. In fact, in just the first 12 hours of the day today 250 spammers signed up on BYC alone!
Thanks to the amazing work of our moderators and the reports from our members we've been able to remove most of the spam and spammers.
We've also been implementing a few different systems to stop, or at least slow down the spammers from free access to posting their junk on BYC and the sister sites. Some of those systems are behind the scenes and some may impact new members.
Until we feel very comfortable that the spammers have chosen a new place in which to play, we'll have a few restrictions in place for brand new members.
Starting now, if you are a brand new member you will NOT be able to:
1) Post links or pictures
2) Create a signature or post an avatar
Once you are no longer "new" (which is determined by our system) you'll be able to freely post links and images and update your entire profile.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but it is one of the trade-offs we must put in place to keep BYC running smoothly and clean for all of our wonderful members and visitors!
Thank you for your support of our amazing community!
If you have problems accessing BYC, posting, etc. please let us know!
