Michael, can we get a list of the "banned" sites so that we know not to inadvertantly post a link to any of them?

Once a user clears a certain number of posts the system stops scanning their posts, primarily cause scanning that list is pretty processor intensive. I won't say what the number is exactly, but it's high enough to deter spammers and low enough not to bother regular users.

Besides, the whole list is seven pages long and has a lot of words the censor system would wack.

Good job playing whack-a-mole with the spammers.
