I'm not sure how much spam this forum actually gets, but installing anti-spam mods are usually enough to prevent the majority of it. Though, I suppose whatever precautions you take, phpBB will always be spam-prone.

I noticed this as well. I signed up just a few weeks ago, but this site seems down more often than not so far.

Perhaps some consideration should be put into finding a new hosting provider? CariNet (I'm assuming that's Fanmail.biz's provider) doesn't exactly have a great track record.

I'm just wondering. I'm still new here, but about half the times I visit, the forums (and sometimes the site itself) is down.

I won't be attending, with the stadiums being on the other side of the country and all.. the Toronto stadium would actually be closer! Never quite liked the Classic though - some of the participating countries probably don't even play much baseball (Netherlands, South Africa, etc), and some like Ita...

I never liked it... I thought it was canceled months ago?

Besides, online petitions are completely worthless.

Spam is generally posted by bots, not actual humans.

Anti-spam mods would certainly help, if they haven't been installed already.

I collect penguin things (much like Hayley with her unicorns and faeries), pins from my travels, doujinshi (sort of a Japanese equivalent of a comic book), tickets/stubs and (to some degree) freshwater snails.
