With a letterpress community of over 25,000 registered members, we have been quite successful in eliminating most spam from the site. People who abuse the site are generally blocked quite quickly from further use. This does not mean that they will not sign in under another username, but it is time-consuming and there are measures in place that deter this kind of action.
However, it is not possible to monitor every comment that is posted, so our success is due to the help and cooperation of our users who contact us with the address of the inappropriate post or comment. The address of the post or comment is the number found at the top of each page in the browser window after briarpress.org. For example, the address of this entry is http://www.briarpress.org/13982 .
We thank those members who have taken the time to help keep Briar Press focused on letterpress discussion and activities.
