BoardSupport is a virus distribution spammer with 0 messages on forum yet able to send private messages. I recommend making a minimum of 10-20 messages before being able to send PMs. This should help.

At this time, the option to restrict new members has not been set up. In the future this type of option(s) will be added to the programming of this message board.

I have Googled this and found no such organization. What I did find was several other message boards getting the exact same PM spam.

Any PMs received about Administrators of danielleftv.com reporting members from this message board to the StopSpam Organization are just spam and need to be deleted.

Due to the recent rash of PM spam that has been troubling this message board, a new members restriction has been set up. From now on all new members will have to make a certain number of posts before they will be able to send any private messages. The number of posts is more than 10 but at this time I do not want to reveal the exact number. Please let me know if this causes any problems for current members. Also, be aware of this restriction when giving advice to new members.

That's what I needed to know. I will fix that problem right away.

To all who experience trouble accessing PMs:

I am working on this problem. This will be fixed today. I cannot yet give you any time frame so just be patient.

Usergroups have been modified to the effect of the following:

All members who have 25 posts or more will be automatically moved into the new usergroup the next time that they post. This new usergroup has the ability to not be moderated (however the Moderators will still watch what you post so be sure to follow the rules) and the usergroup will be able to send PMs, etc without trouble. All members who have less than 25 posts will be restricted. Posts will be moderated as well as picture comments, visitor messages, and some other things that have slipped my mind right now (it's been a long night). Also, those members that have less than 25 posts will not have access to PMs in any way. So everybody get to posting a lot...lol!
