Hi. a spammer has infiltrated our site. We need to initiate a flagging system so users can alert about offensive users.

e.g.: bred441 (http://www.newtooslo.org/user/104)

Cleaning up the streets.

I have enabled user authentication now, so anyone that wants to post on the site needs to be personally approved. It's a bit of a maintenance overhead that I would like to avoid, but hopefully this will kill the snake at the head, rather than having to clean out the spam messages in the forum.

SPAM reporting.

Thanks for the tip - I have deleted that user's posts. What a scumbag. This is the price we pay for having an open, automated system.
