Exclamation < HI Members and Future Members>READ THIS

We are under attack again, so Mods please look at the posts being made and dump them at your DISGRESSION .

We @ this moment have 33 members on line and 647 future members and alot of those will be Spammers, so watch for them.

I have dumped over 700 spammers in the last 3 days alone and our mods have also done alot of the same.
So watch who you all post to and don't befriend anyone who you don't already know in here.
Also don't use their links, cuz alot of them go to Malicious
Softwear Links.

That isn't a bad idea Ang if you have the ability. there seems to be an overwhelming amount from Russia and Sri Lanka.
