Yes......ignoring it. they'll get bored.
In any case only Daz can do something about it, he moderates the forum.

Maybe I'd refute that John, as a board full of spam just looks dead and easy prey for more useless and unrelated posts. Spammers at the Yahoo groups I moderate get short thrift - the posts are deleted instantly and the offenders banned permanently...
Nice to see the interest I've tried to drum up with a few posts seem to have gone unnoticed too.

I really don't know if anything can be done about it shaqui, short of deleting the messages, and only Daz can do that as he is moderator, and has the passwords.
I myself haven't intentionally ignored your posts, it's just that I don't check the forums everyday, more like once a week, I am going to have a look at them now.......
John.

Nice one, I've been a bit busy too. Look-out for the return of 'John's Look-out' in a week or two, New and improved with full issues of strips. I'm hoping to be up and running by 1st of June....watch this space........

Hiya again, John! Will the new John's Look-Out be doing the same thing as the Archive then if it's going to contain full issues of strips?

Yes I am going to be including full issues of strips, but i'm going to be on geocities so they will rotate every so often, old ones deleted to show new ones. One way round this is to buy webspace, but I would have to make it a 'Paypal' donation site as webspace is expensive, people can let me know what they think of this idea either here or in the site guestbook, when it is running, hopefully June 1st (2006). Another advantage of doing this is the archive site could link to these issues expanding it more quickly.....
The site will also contain the other stuff like the cover archive, chronology etc, etc.....
John.
