Ok everyone, obviously, samblack11 and jlzwood125 are nothing more than spammers. Whether it's automated or real people, I don't know. But I do know that as long as you all keep clicking their links and replying to their posts, they're not going to go away.
So, I'm asking you all to ...PLEASE... STOP CLICKING THEIR LINKS AND REPLYING TO THEIR POSTS!
Thank You!!!

Thanks Todd, I have to delete each post in a thread one at a time. The more people reply to that crap the longer it takes to remove.

If the moderators were a little more active here, and enforced the Terms and Conditions here, then they'd be policing the spammers.......

This forum runs on a custom script -- and apparently "ban user" is not an available function on the admin control panel.... sure seems like a glaring oversight - IMHO.

Like I have said before banning a user doesn't do much since they just sign up as another user using a different username and email address and then you have to figure out who they are all over again.

I can't enforce anything. All I can do is delete posts one at a time. I usually only get in here once a day late at night and sometimes not even then.

At least the posts are easy to pick out. It looks like they had a helluva time typing a sentence in English. If they ever posted something like "what you think Sammy's riding pants?" We'd all follow the link.

lizzybenny is really a closet Jack Dover fan by looking at his posts. Maybe I better quiz Lori on this this weekend...
If this post isn't results, stories or something c
constructive, it isn't me!

I'm new at this. Why would a person take the time to post a pointless message like them?
Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Because derelict Ford fans click the links and the spammers generally get paid per click.
