That's more action for that board since this website was created probably.
It used to be really active. It was a daily stop for me. But, it seemed to go radio silent out of the blue one day. Seems like it was around 2009-2010, which is ironic, considering the recruiting uptick we went on right around then. But, up until then it was almost as busy as this board.

They've now moved to the HOB Ticket Exchange forum.

I reported the spam to the moderators several times last week but gave up after it became clear nothing was being done to stop it.

There are several fake accounts in the Radar forum that were scoping out the place before the spamming began.

Yea we saw your report and I personally had taken action. It's one of those boards as everyone kind of alluded to that is rarely used. We can't monitor every post so we do rely on the report button more than people think if I'm being honest.

Like I posted above, they have now moved on to the HOB Ticket Exchange forum.

Two and a half pages of spam there.

I've seen this on other forums. They won't go away easily. They'll keep coming back until something is done up front to prevent them from being able to register.

I just wanted to take a second and tell you that you're one of the better posters on this board. I've read your stuff for years.
