Hey,

I just put together a Forum Community targeted towards young and aspiring programmers. The Community provides instruction, support and related chat. My Intention is to create a community that will be made up of next-generation programmers learning and developing together.

I just set it up a few days if you want to come help us get started.

Even if you don't have any programming related questions at first please feel free to start up chat to help initiate yourself into the community!

Hope to see you come Introduce yourself

Gave infraction and a clear warning not to do it again.

**athomas** · 03-28-2009, 04:24 PM

Yeah I got that PM too.

**vangogh** · 03-29-2009, 08:46 PM

How recently did you get the PM?

**athomas** · 03-31-2009, 03:28 AM

Right before I posted that reply. He was trying to "reason with me" as to why I reported it. I just told him to stop messaging me. Yet the messages kept coming...

Thanks. That's what I wanted to know. Since the PM spam continued after my previous warning to Lyle, his account is no longer active.

We certainly wouldn't want evidence of a spammer getting caught. Be glad you didn't spam one of my domains. You publish it, it's PUBLIC DOMAIN. I frequently republish links from spammers in hidden mailto: links to be picked up by spambots. Curiously, I don't get spammed much. I wonder why?
