    I've seen accounts with over 200 spam reports that continue to post. Admin work Monday to Friday 9-5. There is nothing that can be done from Friday afternoon onwards. 

    This is a multimillion pound website yet corners are well and truly cut to the max.

    uh! now I can. Sorry for OT in this thread - creating a new thread and posting was getting blocked out by the spam filter until yesterday and forum support couldn't fix it. Seems resolved!

    I'm sorry that my 54,000th post was too soon after my 53,999th and that it is obviously allowing spammers to access the forum, and thanks for the suggestions in your patronising message.
