Hi, TW, and welcome to the forum. I think new people deserve their own welcome thread so here's yours.

"Tosha Warriner" is no longer a member of the forum. I deleted this account for breaches of the registration conditions.

The account initially had links to a "sex cam" site in the member profile. After I deleted these, they were re-inserted, so it was obvious that this was part of a spamming operation, not a genuine person wishing to be part of the forum.

As a matter of interest, the vast majority of attempts to join the forum are from spammers, mostly completely automated. If I didn't have a manual approval step in the registration process the forum would soon be swamped with advertising links - some sleazier than others.

Manual verification of new accounts is sadly necessary on most forums, given the number of spammers who will try anything to trick you into clicking on their links.

Though one of the weirder phenomena I encountered when delving further into this case, is that a Google search on "Tosha Warriner" now throws up a brace of links about Israeli kibbutzes. Which are about as far removed from sex cams as you could wish for ... Cheesy
