Default PM from a BANNED Member

GREGORY, I guess you would be the one to adress this and I wanted to Post this as a POSSIBLE WARNING. I just gor a PM from Erin Pavlina, It Shows She's BANNED. Said She was just PMing out of the blue to a random peson as to She and a friend of hers wrote a book together but her husband thinks it sucks and wants me or anyone I guess to go to this link she posted and give an opinion. NOW 1rst off, She's banned so will not respond. 2nd. I'm thinking this could be something to open up a VIRUS or BUG or Something on My PC and maybe Work it's way into the TQ setup. I'm not up on all this puter stuff but if She's BANNED , She may want a little revenge on TQ So To ANY MEMBER that may Recieve a PM from ERIN PAVLINA I would Just DELETE IT and take no chances. Just wanted to Pass this on.

Yeah, me too... Don't know about y'all, but I'm getting really tired of all this drama... I've got enough drama in my life as it is, and I come here to escape it, or at least I try to, but lately it hasn't helped much...

I decided to delete my account at TNet yesterday because of such drama...

I got it too. I forwarded it to Greg. I also saw that user was banned. In the mean time, go detecting before all that cold white stuff starts flying!
Best of luck,

Ditto on the banned PM. The link actually goes to a web page with a book you can read called "Asylum". Very strange.

The member sent the PM's before they were banned. I got one as well.

They are just a spammer, I've zapped all the PM's now.

Thanks Paul. It's hard to control the spammers. I guess I could add a hack to where new members with under 5 posts can not use the PM system.?

Thank you all for the messages.
