Monday at 11:58 PM1 day Administrator No. My many Duck-Buddies...I have shared with you about the Spammers who try to register, about the AI bots who try to penetrate our forum, and now I have had to fight off TROLLS who try to register and trash-talk us.When people register...I ask for their "Oregon Story" and I have learned how to distinguish between AI, Spammer, a real Oregon fan....and now the Trolls. I will call the phone number of the registrant to confirm they are legit, and three times recently--either I got a false phone number or after receiving a voicemail and text to call me...they refuse.Busted!This takes a lot of time upfront, but it relieves a ton of problems later for the moderators and I--and most of all for YOU. I do not want my Duck-Buddies subjected to some of things I get in emails sent to me. (Although some are pretty clever insults)Geez. The trouble we have to go through to keep a clean forum!What Trolls Want to Leave Behind... Mr. FishDuck

I say, they will learn soon enough. "BEWARE THE QUACK!"
