VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Spam Postings

Mahri and I are trying to stay on top of the 'spam' postings on this board. We are reporting them to Voy, and I am blocking the IP addresses. If it becomes a big problem, I could enable the "captcha" function, this is the tool that requires the user to enter a random code (like they use on Ticketmaster and other sites).

Fortunately, we only seem to be having this problem on the Cottage Board (*fingers crossed*).

Thank you, Peggy. That was truly weird, seeing all that advertising. (NT) -- Elaine, 18:01:58 03/03/08 Mon
Thanks ladies for working to keep those asshats out of OUR Cottage. I would rather have to enter the 'code' than be faced with those ads if it comes down to it. (NT) -- Carla, 05:23:29 03/04/08 Tue
- Me, too. (NT) -- Elaine, 06:03:23 03/04/08 Tue
  - FYI, if it is any comfort, I believe Voy users who are logged in would be able to post without using the code. (NT) -- PeggyB, 08:30:41 03/04/08 Tue
  - Me three.....I feel violated like some one broke into our house. It's totally creepy. I'd log back in or enter a code if need be. (NT) -- Noelle, 08:51:51 03/04/08 Tue
- Myself as well- that I'd rather enter a code that is. Thanks for getting rid of the ads, it just felt yucky to see them here. (NT) -- celtgirl, 10:45:29 03/04/08 Tue
