Dave, was that the same guy who responded to my trade thread in the Iris forum? I just checked that thread and there were a few posts that are now gone plus the t-mail he sent me is also gone.

Yes, that's the same guy. I deleted all the posts in your thread since they were completely irrelevant at this point.

dave said:Lori, you were specifically targeted for contact by this guy and I got pretty uncomfortable when he kept coming back with new names after I banned him numerous times.

This is a good lesson to keep in mind: when a brand new member signs up and starts asking for plants, you should almost always simply ignore it altogether. Let them get established in the community a little bit before extending offers for plants.


Can you just ban his IP address? It'd work if he had a static IP...
