It is pretty disgusting for all these Spammers to get on here and take up our Time.

How do we report them?

    Below the post,on the right

    Below the post,on the right hand side is says comment or flag the post.  Click on 'flag' and then you will be asked as you sure you want to flag it.  (Not the exact words but close.)   The ones in charge will be notified to take care of the problem/delete.

    I was going to say the same thing

    Glo, I agree with you. They are so annoying and mess up our threads. I guess it's part of being on the internet. Even if you ban them, they just make a new profile...sigh....

    Hi everyone!

    First of all, I am sorry for the spam that was posted onto the discussion boards. We have securities in place, but there are some that still get through on occasion.

    The best way to report the spam is to select the "Flag this" in the lower right corner of a post. This will alert our team so that we will take care of it. In the meantime, please do not share any information with these individuals, or click on the links they listed on their posts. 

    If you are unsure whether or not it is spam, you may still flag it or you can also email us by selecting "Contact CSN" in the top right corner of every CSN page. 

    Again, I apologize for the inconvenience, but thank you all for alerting us and supporting CSN!

    THANK YOU, Nick!

    Just want to say THANK YOU, Nick, for working on a Sunday -- and on a holiday weekend! -- to keep an eye on the board for us and clean up the inevitable messes.

    I'm especially grateful, because -- if your profile pic is a photo of you -- it's pretty impressive that you can type that well with those big paws! Laughing

    Seriously...this board is a tremendous free service to us all, and we really appreciate your quick response and hard work.
