So after having a wee look at the latest spammers it was alarming to discover 12 folk joined a day ago as you can see
Out of these 12 folk 8 are spam!!!..just because some don't post a link it's all there on their "about" page !!
It's ridiculous that these all go undetected unless by the RSPB
It's like a free advertising place for anything and everything
From Essay writing to Escorts!!
It's a disgrace
Rant Over :-]

Zo Clark said:She said at one point she can’t pm Robbo cause he has his pm off even though she’s tryed cause she gets along with him.
She might say that but he hasn't remotely supported her vicious behaviour. That clearly came as a shock to her. She only likes other forthright people as long at they are not forthright about the way she was behaving.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
We have all wasted enough of our precious time on her let's hope head office takes care of it now ;-)

The process we are undergoing is an upgrade of a specific piece of software. Therefore, to a large extent we are at the mercy of what this software does or does not provide. That said, there is some flexibility and control over what the software does, of course, but not a huge amount.
In this particular case, the Messages functionality does not include Report abuse capability. This is because "Report abuse" as a concept exists to allow people to report what others have said if it offends them or is legally on dodgy ground. Within the context of private messages therefore this doesn't make sense as no one else can see the message.
The subject of abuse through private messaging is a valid one though and the software is designed to make this difficult or unlikely. Messages are only allowed from your Friends so this provides the first line of defence, as it were. If you have befriended a person on the Community and they are contacting you via Messages in a way you do not like, you can simply de-friend them and they will not be able to Message you again.
I hope that explains a little more.
All the best,
Graham
if this is how private messaging is supposed to work it obviously didn’t that’s on the occasion that it’s the latest update wev had
you can request friendship to private message yes but You can also private message someone without making a request obviously
I hadnt recieved any requests to private message the person which in this case was peewit I was simply private messaged out of the blue and the person hoped I’d reply before it all started
so there must be some sort of glitch if that is how it is supposed to work or there must be more to it than we are told obviously.

I might consider the possibility of lookng iinto it at some point and see if I can figure out the answer and things like that then maybe I might consider phoneing the RSPB if all else fails
