You signed up less than 30 minutes ago. How is it possible you couldn't send messages "all day long"?
That was me expressing my frustration. Did not mean the whole day.
We track IP addresses. It is fairly easy to establish where spammers post from. Your post was caught in the moderation queue too, by the way.

Nigerian love letter is a blanket term that is generally accepted for these kinds of remittance scams regardless of the origin (It's named because of the large volume of scams originating in Nigeria). They're also known as 419 scams. 419 Eater - The largest scambaiting community on the planet!not fair not every scam letter is Nigerian... really not fair.. might be a neighbouring country or even an European
On another forum where I moderate we have a rule of 3 posts before PMs get activated (and they must be substantial/genuine posts - not necromancing three old threads with 'i agree'). It rarely interferes with actual people (and if there's an immediate need for PM for some reason then we drop the 'substantial' requirement and just get them to reply to their own thread with 'I understand'). It does cut down hugely on the spam of both the 'actual spam' and 'clueless newbie' types.
