They're ads, aren't they?

That's what I thought when I took a quick look the other day.

I sent them an email and they started clearing some time ago but don't know why it's taking so long. :-S

ALL DONE :-D

Down to three and a half pages now. This must be the most time they have spent on GR for ages.

It continues they just clear the one that was reported - the dying ship sinks a little more :-(

Yes you need membership to post and the posting like this happens regularly so I don't think the staff bother to block them :-S

I checked the posters on a few pages of the recent posts. There were at least 10 different ones, 4 of whom joined in Feb 2019 and the others in May/June 2015. The membership numbers were not consecutive.

Do you have to be at least a standard member to post on the Success board? If so, someone has money to waste.

Another day gone and not even the post reported taken off - absolutely pathetic.

I have reported them but only 2 taken down it's pathetic :-(

Last time it was like this - a coupe of months ago- it took over 2 hours for me to report everyone. This time I reported them one at a time, see at the moment I've reported one, with an explanation that there are pages of the stuff and they just clear down the one I've reported. NO ONE IS READING THE REPORT I FILLED IN.

I've given up as I'm not going to police a board when they take money from me to pay for their jobs, which they obviously aren't doing. So fed up with this site. :-\

There's at least 13 pages of them. Some have been there over a week so Genes haven't noticed yet. I presume a bot has put them there.

Gosh, someone leads a sad life. :-(

Or is it a 'Genes' problem?

Anyone who wants practice in reporting posts should pop over to the Success Stories board now.
