With the bombardment of the fake passport positings today should the CC limit access to post in the forum to members only so they can at least control who is positing and what they post?  Can still leave it open to read if they want?

looks like anyone can just post whatever they like, unless someone has been hacked?

I'm in the process of removing them and have alerted HQ. The only thing they were prepared to do, at the time of the last spamming attack, was to moderate first posts but it's clearly not happening now.

I used to be greatly in favour of members only being able to post but we have a few good posters who aren't members. I wouldn't want to see them barred from posting.

Can't say that its really spoilt my day

Just have patience and a 'mod' will remove it at some point, on saying that it could be of a content that might upset a few viewers (we have had it in the past) so yes, first posts need moderating or if someone wants to post then become a member.
