Despite Mabsy's forum etiquette guidelines, some people still won't learn.
I love this forum and am learning loads from all the wonderful EDS forum members. I absolutely it when an individual goes spamming the forum with their cr*p promoting their website.
I'm sorry , I just needed to get that off my chest. |

I think I've encountered the spammer you are talkng about! It is a bit frustrating when you receive a notification on a topic you are interested in only to find junk!!
Ughhh! |

I notice that she has listed an email address in her profile details. Also there is a contact section on her website with her sales email address. I wonder how she would feel if she suddenly got sent loads of spam to her email addresses? Anybody got any ideas how you can sign somebody up for lots of junk emails?
Poor Mabsy, they always seem to spam her forum. |

We cleaned her spam. This is unbelievable. Over 100 spam posts in one afternoon and she is a grown up person.
I am speechless. |

Great work by the EDS Moderators.
It's not exactly good business practice to go around spamming message boards. Do these people really think this sort of behaviour will improve their sales? If anything, it is more likely to turn potential customers away. I would certainly never purchase from anybody who behaved in this manner. |

Thank you to all who PMed and posted reports. I cleaned up some remaining stray ones today and will go through her posting profile to make sure we got each one |

We should all go to her Arbonne web site, and each one of us request a package of information with samples. Then when she calls to see how we liked the samples, we could tell her that we liked the Nu Skin products better...Sending out those packages costs money, and that is the only thing that speaks to some (not all) of them...especially the spammers...
I am new, so "hello" to you all.

Wow, 100 posts! I saw this person yesterday around 5:30 pm. (east. stand. time) and I could see the posts going from 17 then to 20. I didn't know what to do. I didn't realize there is a "report" button on the forum. I replied to one of their posts, but then edited it and realized it wasn't my place to reprimand them. Glad to see it was taken care of, kudos to EDS! |

Toe,
It's funny you say that because as she was spamming I searched google for "join mailing lists" and got a bit of frustration out....
You know, there's some sites where you can sign up for about 100 newsletters at once...and they probably share your name with others.... |

Nice touch Lianne When I logged in last night there were 3 pages of "new posts since last visit" - most of 'em were hers It's a shitty website anyway!

It was also a great way to procrastinate from studying |
