the box "What brings you here?" still can't be removed. I will see at NING if they can fix that.

Thank you, Ruud. I noticed that those who have typed in something in the box that says "What brings you here?" automatically get posted at Main page, too. Guess it is a way for the site to have a direct communication with everyone. But I ignore it, hope it can be removed, but not a big problem if it cannot.

"What brings you here?" is a programm routine build in by NING. When you post something there it automatically is publiches on the main page. It is just a communication tool. Nothing more. I will have a look if I can remove it.

Since I placed a moderated block on new members I had to decline about 20 commercial 'new member' who just wanted to make advertising for a link and were not art-related at all...

phillyvenues
makes no comments....a promotion site,
rather than a real artist? a mail art artist?
I had a "friends" message, but will ignore it.
There is "NO ANSWERS" N/A for why he/she does
mail art, etc.
On September 11, it was listed on birthdays!
And I am afraid that the 9/11 "birthday" is also a hoax.
Check it, and remove it ?

Ruud, several of us are getting a mesage at the top of our page:
"What brings you here?"
And we cannot erase it. Is it spam or is it an ad from ning.com?
It is so annoying, hope it can be erased, please!
(We are having a bit of fun with it at "Cows..." group!)

This group is now moderated. It already prevented one spammer from entering. Lets keep the group mail-art related and we will all enjoy it. Thanks for your reaction Gik. Always good to know that people agree with what I do - Ruud

And it's right decision, dear Ruud! Almost no mail artists left here...

Radio Star has been removed because he/she was using the site for publishing non-related links. Because of the frequence of spammers, I am considering a moderating of memberships again.
