It seems these Asian spammers are determined buggers and aren’t going to give up.

I’m sure others have better ideas, but it would be nice to implement some restrictions that would slow them down from clogging the forums.

My ideas:
Can only start one thread every 24 hours until reaching post count of 10…25…?

Can only post one reply every hour until reaching post count of 10…25…?

I’m sure these ideas have some downsides and others have better ideas than this. I’m also sure there are web admin limitations that may hinder these efforts. But I’m sure the admins would equally enjoy not having to deal with these dweebs every few days.

Post up your ideas and maybe we can find one or two that stick and help make this community better.

@TucsonFX4 - sounds good to Me….but I’m unaware of how much work this might add to the Moderators and they already do a good job weeding out “junk”. I also have Zero computer skills and not sure if this adds any costs to the AH Forum etc..

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
