I have noted that spammers are starting to post in this group, and the posts are not being removed. I'd hate to see this group become yet another spam dump with these posts drowning out any useful content. DO you need help moderating the group?

Two of the three moderators have been AWOL since 2021, and the Admin is only able to log in sporadically. I think we need a couple of new moderators.

One account did 4 spam posts, those were all removed. Then 6 more spam posts showed up, from 3 different accounts, 4 of which were from the same account as the first 4.

I guess I didn’t realize some had been removed since that account replaced them with new spam. I’m glad to hear it’s being addressed.

| Personally, I'd have banned the account after the first spam post. If you ignore them, the posts breed like rabbits. You have to keep up on it, because these people look for accounts where the admins and mods don't care. We had a relatively spam free group until recently.

Ignore them. Just look at the railroad posts.

We greatly appreciate the effort and work you do every day to maintain this very informative decades long forum.
Difficult with the computer system which handles a huge amount of data and photos on this twenty years old internet site.
Never any complaints even when this site is off line a few times. Many thanks for starting and maintaining this wonderful site.

Thank you for your efforts. The site is working much better now, faster, and it
no longer boots off the "active topics" with each inquiry, which would be
confusing to newcomers. THANK YOU.

| Ditto for me. Thank you for keeping the site running smoothly. As an IT person, I can say that it is a challenge to keep up with all the bug patches, updates from Microsoft (or whatever OS you have), browser updates, etc. and keep them all working in synch.
