Just loking around, and i've found that most people that are caught spamming and such tend to have a link in their thread to some auto site for unrelated parts. I'm assuming this is to "assist" with google pagerank and such. Maybe if we allowed it so that people with under 50 posts can't have links in their sigs it will cut down on spamming slightly?

There's two members, both seen HERE (post #51 and #52) that do that, from what I've seen there just trolls or just members that haven't established themselves.

I saw it, don't worry. But for now there is nothing I can do. I am talking to Mike about it, I'm waiting to hear back from him on the problem.
