The previous Administrator (Sydney) gave no clear indication how often this site might be affected by spam and/or posts which might be regarded as suspicious. This may happen often; we simply do not know.
The new Administrators recognise an obligation to protect members from such posts-particularly if they contain links which may be dangerous if opened.
Members are respectfully asked to ensure that any links included in a post are to genuine sites. New members who include a link in their first post are liable to be greeted with a certain suspicion. A recent such post was deleted after consultation between the three co-moderators.
We would rather err on the side of caution than leave members open to having their pcs/laptops infected!

Three very recent posts with a link but no accompanying text have been deleted.
I am very sorry if the links were to a genuinely useful site or if this upsets others but the prime responsibility here is to protect members' systems from possible infection.
If a link is being posted PLEASE provide some information which will provide guidance for those who might be interested.

I have just deleted a thread started by someone as a first post on here. The text of the post was a single sentence making the single point that "Indonesia really has bad music".
I am afraid that I do not consider that a serious contribution to our discussion on here. I am sorry if anyone feels that is "tough" or "unjust" but I do consider it part of my duty to protect members from frivolous posts of this kind.
