Default Unwanted 'Scam' Postings/Threads - 17-10-2009, 08:40 AM

I have noticed an ever increasing amount of 'non related posts' on this forum, attached to ligitimate topics.
They can range from threads from 'members' in other parts of the world - whether it be "how to increase your income" to porn.
Is the any way we can block these 'scams' - my daughter accesses this site - and these is an increasing amount of unsuitable material finding its way onto our forum.
A friend, in another forum on steam trains, says the same is starting to happen on his forum.
Any ideas? or it set to get worse.

I agree with you Bluewater. I've sent a message to the forum about this.

Being removed as I notice them/people report them.

Will work on a more permanent solution as it is getting silly now.
