Bumping to top hopefully moderators will get on board quickly
This is the worst case of spamming I have ever seen on WB. It needs to be stopped, it is still being posted as I reply.

It's all in the Arizona Trail Forum. Just go to the forums page/tab and navigate from there until it's fixed

Went into the forums page and scrolled down to the "arizona Trails" forum. Double clicked on icon on left hand side to mark all items in that forum as read. Keeps older posts from showing up as unread posts. Probably will have to do it several times until problem is fixed but it seems to be a quick work around.

Why do they do it. . .
Because they can.
because it costs hundredths of a penny per spam. Only one in every 10,000 needs to get a hit for it to make money.

They offend me so much that I would never purchase from them but you would be surprised at how many fall for it.
