    Hi,

    Yes, I was alerted of this earlier and banned this user.

    What happens is (I think) someone comes in through legit means, and once in, they spam out the place.

    Sorry about this.

    If you get any more spam from anyone pls let the mods know so we can remove the user.

    Used to deal with this as a mod on another forum... fortunately that forum had the property that it deleted all of a user's PM's (even in other peoples PM boxes) when the user was deleted. Quite an effective way of killing the PM-spam, but still had to rely on users to report them, when the spammer was clever enough not to spam mods.
    A banned spammer that still has his load dumped in other people's boxes (...) has still accomplished his goal.
