    I like fried SPAM too... it makes me all nostalgic for Girl Scout camping trips when I was a kid. Scrambled eggs reconstituted from a powder, griddle cakes, SPAM sliced thin and fried....

    Just to bring this back on topic ... The other day (or was it this morning? and is that Alzheimer's setting in?) ... anyways, my point was that I noticed a nasty spam message that had no spam warning symbol in the left-hand field So now spammers seem to have found a way to dodge the spam warning system Does that mean that the administrators need to update the system somehow? ALL posts are supposed to have that red triangle symbol in the lower lefthand corner, right? It's for us to alert the administrators if we find anything annoying or offensive, such as spam, or flaming.

    Just noticed: We don't get the red triangle on our own posts. So maybe this spammer has found a way of coding his (the poster's nick included a male name) spam as everybody's own ...? Eeeeyuw! That's revolting!

    Did the message go away ?

    Once in a while I'll hit the spam alert and I'll get a message that the post no longer exists. In the few seconds between the time I saw the post and clicked on the triangle, the message was already deleted. My guess is a similar sort of thing happened in your case.

    If the message went away then I wouldn't worry about it.

    Yes, the red triangle symbol should be on every post except your own. I've never seen one that didn't have one. If you see another one, you could PM the administrators / moderators.
