Boyd, I changed a permission on the "Stuff for sale or trade" forum because it looked like that was where most of the spam posts were congregating. Tried to make it so that only admins could post threads temporarily. I can't do much (or at least, don't know how to do much), but I was just trying to slow it down a bit if at all possible.

Just so you know...

I changed the registration question, which might need to be done more often. I've mass deleted about 300 bogus registrations and their bullshite posts. If I deleted any legitimate users, please re-register.
