Change is in the Air for the Trading Gurus Community
We've made some changes to the Trading Gurus Community forum. Here's a brief explanation of why.
Spambots much in evidence on our forum on November 23rd 2012
At present (assuming the technology works as advertised!) there should be no changes for anyone who has contributed to the forum by making at least one post. Currently we are accepting no new registrations, and those who have registered but not contributed at least one (non spam!) post will have much restricted functionality.
If you are an existing poster, you may wish to contribute to this thread, where discussion about the way forward is currently taking place. Personally I'm thinking in terms of a modest paywall, but I'm open to persuasion!

I had to give up on our forum for the exact same reason. It's a full-time job taking care of the spam.. Best of luck with the new anti-spam initiative.
Hi Brian,
So you just ditched the forum entirely? Some sort of a "paywall" wasn't an option for you? Did you try any other avenues, or just pulled the plug when the bots took over?
