Ahhhh..... Tis certainly nice to know that our feathered friend is having Great success nabbing the little spamlets as they scurry around in the darkness trying to sneak in and cause mischief. But owls can't live on spamlets alone, so i leave a few of these out to put a little flavor into her nightly excursions. And also a few of these to brighten up the taste of the spamlets. Just remember--Don't Drink too much and fly!! The trees will NOT try to avoid you!
A lot of the spam is by "members". It might be time to consider implementing blacklists.
Know the quiet place within your heart and touch the rainbow of possibility; be
alive to the gentle breeze of communication, and please stop being such a jerk. — Garrison Keillor
That blacklist mod is for phpBB 3.0.9 and we are running 3.0.10 ... that's why the mods are so difficult to install, because every time you update phpBB you have to update the mod and sometimes the people who make the mod don't get around to updating for quite some time, if ever. Though, there was an update for 3.0.10 posted in the FAQ... HMMm. Maybe we just need to give anti-spam powers to more of our users. A lot of it seems to happen late night when I'm asleep.
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.
Ok Ann, i give up. What is a ParaPho? It looks like a word only teachers would know. My Bing translater and Google aren't very smart, and neither is my Webster's College Dictionary, which means i just don't have a snowball's chance in Haiti of being smart in this regard either.

Hmm.... ah, because of the way it's spelled, it just rolled on by me.
Ah, no wonder it just rolled on by me. Thanks Ann. I think all that fresh mountain air is beginning to get to Chris. Maybe he should spend more time down in the pollution, like the rest of us.
Someone just posted in the "Discuss an Astronomy Picture of the Day" folder. This person is apparently a fan of Venus, or maybe not. In any case, the person apparently isn't aware that this is an "English only" forum.
