Modem Junk Posts - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in late 2012 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2012, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts. Here is the full original RF Cafe Forums on Archive.org

Greetings:

I have noticed over the last few months that the latest way to try to sneak spam posts is to put in some useless text about modem issues. They always have hyperlinks to totally unreleated websites.

I'm onto them, and routinely delete them and ban the e-mail of the poster. If you see a post talking about modem problems, I advise you not to waste your time responding; you're just being played.

Usually at least once per day I look through the new postings and delete crap topics, then ban the poster.

Thanks for reading.
