There's spam in at least a couple of the boards.

I took care of it. For some reason other mods seem to like replying in the topics as opposed to moving them.

On a more serious note: the last couple of weeks we've seen many registrations of new "members" pass by. For a lot of those a random name (+ a few figures) was chosen. For example "brandon06". Those "members don't post a single word, but the profile often includes a bunch of rubbish and links (website, or signature) this board has nothing to do with. I try to clean up the memberlist regularly (if links are added), but sometimes someone slips through. I hope this is temporary. Otherwise we might have to make some changes in the registration.

Rule of thumb, think BEFORE you post. And THINK how it may affect someone else's feelings.

Check out the Beach Boys Starline website, the place for pictures of many countries Beach Boys releases on 45.

Listening to you I get the music; Gazing at you I get the heat; Following you I climb the mountain; I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you I see the millions; On you I see the glory; From you I get opinions; From you I get the story

I suggest a hardcore Beach Boys related quiz for new members to weed out the spammers!  Evil

"in this online beach boy community, I've found that you're either correct or corrected. Which in my mind is all in good fun to show ones knowledge of their favorite band."- punkinhead

Except that it would weed out newbies. Do you want to die the last generation of fans, or pass along the genes of the board?
