Updatre your technology

Come on ROI stopping bots like Xrummer which is clearly spamming the crap out of your forum is easily fixed, the issue with the like button is also easily fixed.

Do you have admin staff with actual IT experience and knowledge of running forums with big traffic as from myself this seems not to be the case.

You are also having database issues, to me and consulted many times with forum owners it feels like an idea took off and no one has the IT knowledge to keep up with the system demand.

This is a great forum please don't let a lack of skills kill it.

All the best

were switching servers actually.
as for the spam, it happens thousands of it gets caught in our spam folder, and the rest mods clear up , sometimes spammers hit when we are sleeping
sorry about that, we work as volunteers and while we do our best to be online and clear up spam for you, we sometimes have to do real jobs that pay us money so we can afford to live and eat , and pay car insurance!

The spam is minimal, on RIU.
Most other forums are considerably worse.

Not a bad site - when one considers it's run by volunteer pot heads (inbetween making cash, family life, obsessive devotion to cultivating marijuana and many other calls on free time).

Not bad at all.
