Mr. Wilderness,
I prefer to remain a trusting and optimistic soul, and that may leave me vulnerable at times, and possibly place some members at risk of getting caught in an online scam that may be perpetrated through this Forum, but it also allows me to retain my faith and hope and trust in the human race that most of us are good at heart, and will do the right thing in our dealings with others.
Those individuals who add posts or topics that are, or appear to be scams, are dealt with through the deleting of their posts, and banning them from the Forum membership roles. I do have some friends in this group who notify me by email when they see something suspicious, and I act upon it as soon as it comes to my attention.
As far as the private messages are concerned....the Sweepstakes entries are submitted by PM, and if I changed that at this time, then most of the members would not be able to enter the Sweepstakes. So that is not going to happen.
I did have to eliminate your links that you had in your post. I do not allow links that will lead people away from the Forum. I hope that you will not take that personally. I did allow all of your other criticism of me and of how I run the Forum to remain in your post. Thanks for your opinion.
