Another site I visit has also recently been overwhelmed by spam crap posts... they implemented a "moderator review" of all first and second posts, so if they are spam, the post and poster will be eliminated before the forum ever sees it.

It may be a challenge for someone to be the reviewer of these first posts, but it would solve the problem.
I will offer to do the job since I suggested it (since it could be a burden on Ed, and should be done quickly after the post is made...)

Or we could let Winfred handle it!!!!!!!!!

camaro is a group effort of the aussies, the thing on the cooper page is cause no one has made any posts since that one, the thread is deleted. Make a test thread and it should go away.
