    Seriously? You got that via PM.

    If anyone else gets a similar PM, post it here and we'll take care of it.

    Jeannette,
    If you were actually just hitting on Station just say so. By the way, you should know that he's not as attractive as his namesake from "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey."

    If that was his intended handle, then he spelled it wrong. Unless the character in Bill and Ted is The Staton.

    I just got one, too. What's the best way to report her? I forwarded her PM to Danny. For future reference, is that the best way to take care of spam?

    Anyway, . . . yes, she hit on me, too. But, then . . . who can blame her. :cool: Well, that's what my wife says anyway.

    I got the same exact PM. I'm afraid that I already deleted it however. My standard response to email spam.....

    I didn't get a PM. Should I be upset?

    EDIT: Darn, Evan. And I was about to be hit on...

    We haven't had problems with PM spam prior to this so I don't expect it to be a serious issue.
    If you do see it again you can post a thread just like this one like Godiva did and/or forward the PM to all the moderators and Danny and one of us will take care of it.

    For threads there is a "report this post" button [​IMG] you should use and then post within the offending thread that you've reported it so we don't get 50 reports of the same post.

    Got the same exact message from Jeannette, if she is hitting on us, she needs some new material.

    I didn't get one either. Looks like she started with the newest members and worked back?

    This is clearly PriusChat Age Discrimination!
