"we" let them in.  On the car site I moderate, I check it several times daily and the first place I go is the memberlist.  I select descending order to display the most recent new members and then check their name, website, email address and any other info they post.  The spammers almost always expose their motives in those postings.  Their website will be a crap for sale site, names will be random keystrokes as will be the email addresses.  Normally, they sign on as members and let it stew before loading the site with garbage.

That site has over 8000 members so it can be a handful but lately the membership and traffic has slowed to a crawl so it has gotten easy to monitor for one guy, me.  Normally we had a group of six or eight guys and the site owner to keep people in line and ban spammers.

also blocking this pricks ip would help.  here it is..  91.214.45.104

Sorry it got out of hand. That's what I get for going away for a week... I've deleted all the posts and banned the IP address. I'll also submit a complaint to the domain administrator.
I could require all new members to the forum to be validated before they can post, but that might discourage some of those that are less computer literate from joining. Let's see what happens in the future.

Many sites devoted to Vietnam are mainly Infantry orientated.

What I would like to see happen here is a section for Artillery. Since being from C-3/82/196th (Ft. Devens original) and B-3/34/2/9th ID; I guess I could be a little biased.

It could be organized by unit, year, firebase, operation(s) or some other criteria that applies to artillery.

Lz Hurricane is a 1/82 site that doesn't have a forum and they decided to include all 82nd arty as well.  

I was 4/31 infantry for my first half then transferred to 1/82 arty to finish.  

There could be some crossover with a links section at the least.

Hi Ken,

Would like to suggest we set up a category for 196th Merchandise.  Now that I'm the quartermaster, I would like to be able to "communicate to the masses".  Things like: "We're out of black 196th T Shirts in size Large & 2X"; and "We're out of challenge coins".  (Both of these statements are accurate, by the way) Or to let our members know when a particular item is back on inventory, etc.

Any thoughts?

Doc,  great idea, as is Jim's comment on including pictures. This way we could stay up to date on inventory, especially any new items.  I'm planning on ordering a couple items and this would be a good way to do it. Ken, I hope you will be able to set something up.
