Hello Bob,

You can do pretty-much anything or nothing - it s up to you.
As for the time being, I am finding little time for anything other than work project commitments, I wizzed through yesterday to upgrade storage (done, as requested) and removed a pile of low life spammers. It seems a few join every day.

By upgrading a few of the long timers, you or they can, remove spam, remove posts (you will see a new link in the post for that purpsose and ban / remove troublesome, ingenuine users from the member list. Please don't assume that I expect any of you to perform the role, but the least I can do is to provide the "broom" to do it if with grace and little mercy, should you choose.

I will be back, but I am committed to deadlines (that have in some cases, past) so I must stay on task at the moment.
Cheers,
Mark

Bob, if you see a spam poster you can delete him/her.  Open the post, click on the user name, and on the right hand side you will see 'Ban This User' in the little menu.  Click on this and when it asks you for a password put in your logon password.  Then make it a permanent ban by clicking the boxes.  Say OK.
Then use the back button to go back to the post and you will see a remove this post link -  at the top and also at the bottom.  Click on this and they are gone!  I do try to come in a couple of times a week to ctch the buggers but the more of us able to do it the better.

I realised that I am 'in the power' too, when I received emails telling me that new members have joined.  Thanks Mark.

Oh what a feeling!!!

Dale is so keen on receiving notifications, which I will turn off for him, as you do get few mostly spammers.
I can remove or modify said 'power' if you prefer. Just let me know!
