Thanks Tim!

I clicked on a couple and there is a message in their white board and the statistics says the page has been visited over 1,000 TIMES ! WTH is going on with that ? Are they passing messages to others in their group thru this forum ?

Overnight my messages was blown up with 36 pm's from several including "rikibac593", many by "Owen". Seems they are using my message board for gamer discussion.
