               That's been going on for years now!  I think you can just report the spam and the admins will clean it up.

               i posted this on the cc forum since i feel it will effect us the most. i mean its kind ahard to read what other players are saying about our craetions when you have to sift through: "GET 50% ALL HANDBAGS!" or what-not.

i was hoping that maybe the vault moderator might be aware, or had ideas to fix it. im sure just reporting a bot doesnt really work

               I've reported spam on my entries twice, but it just keeps coming back.  At this stage, it's on so many entries that I feel bad bother BeyondThePale about it.  But, seriously, it's crippling the Vault.

               I would be all for them just rejecting any new posts comments that have URL's in them. That would at least stop most of the new ones showing up.

               perhaps if the vault implemented CD-key registration to post, it would end it too. Seems a shame that a cd key is now a useless entity for NWN...
