    I promise I am not a spammer. I have a lot of post on WUS (under 93EXCivic).

    So I registered via tapatalk and now I can't log in my profile on a PC.

    I get I've entered an invalid username or password. When I try to register on the forum via PC it says the username is taken.

    Am I doing something wrong ?

    I can only assume it's a password issue. I can reset it and send you a new one if you like.

    We know you're not a spammer. Most of us recognize your username. You were in the middle of block of spammers which caused a temporary ban while we picked through the IP. The spammers are so bad, it's easier to ban the entire range and go back and reapprove the real members, than it is to ban only the spammers.

    I am sorry it inconvenienced you. Spammers are an ongoing problem and we will constantly search for ways to improve our defenses against them, but manual bans really work better than any of the anti-spam software out there. We've learned this through trial and error.

    What the ??????????????

    Did you remove some spam from this thread (below) since its inception ?

    Big hole in my collection that I don't know how to fill


    Either a proper IWL member is pulling your chain or they added some spammy tags to it that obviously weren't removed when you zapped the post, I just happened by chance to hover over the tag symbol in the new posts list for this thread and thought "WTF" !!

    Maybe something to watch out for with future arseholes (I mean spamsters)

    This one has similar (but different) odd tags > When FedEx 2-day isn't

    I got em. Thanks. Firing squad isn't even adequate for spammers in my opinion. I mean who the hell has ever been reading a watch forum and thought? OH, an ad for kitchen knives, let me go buy some right this second. On this spammy website.

    Their IP should cut them off and the equipment should be smashed up in front of them... Then we'd go at them with aforementioned kitchen utensils

    They really are the scum of planet earth.

    A couple of questions, which I don't think have been brought up...

    1) Can I stop getting notified when I "like" something?
    2) How do I "unlike" something I "liked" in error?
    3) I got a nice notification, something along he lines of a recommendation giving me a score of 11, but then it went. What was that, and where's it gone?

    Thanks.
