Due to a tremendous amount of spam coming to me, effective immediately forums@coincommunity.com will no longer be monitored for incoming mail. If you have this email in your address book to contact us please remove it, as all emails to that address will not be seen.

This address still needs to be on your allowed incoming list as the automatic forum emails will still come from this email address. (Subscriptions, etc)

Anyone can contact any of the staff by emailing through their profile. I have also added a "contact us" link under Navigation in the left menu which will come directly to Mom and I exclusively.

Thank you. </soapbox>

I'm gradually switching over to all forms. You need to make sure they are secure also, because they can be used as spam tools if their not. Once they are secure though, that's the way to go.

Seems just a few days ago the email I use for the forum suddenly became bombarded by spam . Which prior I maybe of received 1 or 2 spams a month with my filters. Now its everyday . Is a pain.

I am not talking about members getting spam, I'm talking about me getting spam. Noone has access to any of our members' email addys, except Mom and I.

Since the forums@coincommunity.com email address was plastered all over the site, the spambots just kept picking it up and sending spam to it.

That's why when new members post their email address here I always remove it when I see it.

If everyone never bought anything from spammers I think it would stop, or at least slow down. But unfourtantly enough people buy from them to make it worthwhile to spammers :(
