Some of you may have received some spam via our private messaging system. This happened as a result of a loophole in our forum permission settings. Under the right circumstances, an unverified user could send messages to our users. This issue has been corrected and should not happen again. I apologize for the inconvenience.

This had to do with Dave posting that Spam picture in a thread last evening, right? :chin:

It's always my fault, just ask my dear co-workers. ;)Which reminds me of this old ditty

I'm not allowed to run the train
The whistle I can't blow
I'm not the one who designates
How far the train will go
I'm not allowed to blow the steam
Or even ring the bell
But let the damn thing jump the track
And see who catches hell.

Im a bit late to the party but a month or so ago I got a PM from an old gaming fried that tracked me down here. Just surprised me, lol they were gone the next day. :P Amazing what ppl can find with google. I never figured they'd track me down here. Particularly after 2 years. Assuming they googled my name, found out I was a ham and then googled my call.

So it wasnt spam per say but stuck me as odd. :P
