Default Spam by Patricia over the weekend

It looks like we got spammed over the weekend. A user named "Patricia" sent out a bunch of private messages unrelated to carving.

We have deleted Patricia's account, but there is not much we can do to stop her from coming back with a different username.

I offer my sincere apologies. We have several anti-spam measures in effect, but there comes a time that we have to choose between heavy restrictions on the users, or allowing things like this to happen on occasion.

Please feel free to delete any messages you received from Patricia. Her entire account has been deleted.

If anything like this ever happens to any of you, please feel free to drop me a line.

Best regards,
Bob Duncan
