Spammers are hitting the site a little more often lately. Let me know if you see one posting stupid stuff.

I just squished another one a minute ago.

Not including me....right? ;)

Great work on the quick draw Jim

I just banned Stacy Williams

[Randy Stone]

I had just received emails from Stacy about t shirts promoting Glen Beck and Sarah Palin.
I know G Beck does not support the Fair Tax and neither does Sarah Palin. Is that the reason you banned her or was it something else?

[Sean Fagan]

Stacy was in the process of joining every group for the sole purpose of promoting these products - and that translates into spamming in my book. It didn't even occur to me that Beck is pro flat tax and I didn't even to stop to think if Palin supported the FairTax or not.

If it were FairTax gear, I might have sent her an email and asked her just to post a discussion on the main page and refrain from joining every group.

[Randy Stone]

thanks Sean, I thought that was not a good thing on this site to promote people who we know do not support HR 25

[Jim Tomasik]

Not even FairTax Gear! Not unless Marilyn or I know what is going on.

People will do anything for a buck.

Yeah he/she/it REALLY got us good. I have been in East Tennessee this weekend and away from the computer. I came back to find messages from all the groups have been sent out.

Thanks for taking care of that one Sean.

YEP!!! Hit my WA state group. ARGH!!! Stacy Williams! Isn't there a way to delete what is posted on the groups page? I do NOT like what she is posting as we are a NONpartisian site and that is definately biased, her posting! I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO DELETE THEM!!!

[Sean Fagan]

Ok, Jamie - done!

I'm not sure how many other groups Stacy managed to spam before she was banned, but folks can leave a message here and we'll get rid of the stuff on their page as well.

[Sean Fagan]

On second thought, I just finished reviewing all of the groups and removed Stacy's post from every one of them. Let me know if I missed any.

[Jim Tomasik]

Thanks!
