Protect Yourself from Receiving Forum Email Spam

Unfortunately anyone can join the forum just for the purpose to spam the membership. (until they are reported and lose their membership).

Therefore - Please go into:

User CP menu
Edit Options

UNCHECK Receive email from other members.

Only email from Administrators should be checked.

Save your settings at the bottom.

Any member that wants to contact you can use the private message system.

Pat,

I'm surprised they even have an option like that... If you ask me, they should disable it... unless, of course, they're using it as a way to spot the trouble-makers. LOL!
