Looks like the new filter has been a truly huge success. I have not seen a new registration for quite a while now. As a natural result this thread slowly turns to a regular chat thread :)

Certainly not and that post has been removed.

In situations like this, the user is reminded by PM of our rules that only active members can post links. If that user repeats the process then he/she is removed.
However we hope that this user becomes active :wink:

Hmm... With the permission of all users I'd like to offer lifetime free drinks for Tim & Ed in the Idiots bar. I have had two copies made of the Cabinet door key. Here you go Tim, Ed... Enjoy! That is the least we could do for two of the best admins a forum user could hope for. :clap:

Seems like spammers found a way to bypass the filter. The latest guy has a no-no nick: something like "buycialis"...
