Hi!

In my opinion offensive and commercial topics should be removed from this forum. They don't belong here as they have nothing to do either with DSL or general topics about the use of computers.

Have fun helping each other in a meaningful forum,

Hi shane!

I was thinking of sexually related topics and advertisements for various products.

Have fun,

Hi again!

I might add stupid posts that make no sense to the list of removable topics.

Have fun,
meo

This spam is manually removed, either by John or Robert, when they see it. I've seen a number of times when a post appeared for only a few minutes before it was deleted. But since it's done manually, and by only a couple of people, sometimes a post will be around for quite a while before it is deleted.

I agree, but anyone can join dsl forum and use a proxy to hide their ip while posting advertisements, I think that admins should rectify this problem.
