Is like this every morning?
The spam I mean.

The majority of the early morning spam is thankfully caught by those in Europe and beyond, but I still see some once in a while, if I get up extra early here in the US East Coast.  I flag any that I see.
 
It used to be kitchen cabinet makers and house remodelers, and now it seems to be some butt nut spamhole from India.
 
This guy has not been at it for all that long, and hopefully he will move on or someone local to him will beat him senseless for failing to actually be able to use voodoo to make some guy irresistible.
 
Just flag what you can, and whatever is seen by others will get flagged as soon as it is detected.  :)
 
If someone has to register a new user name after getting banned, I am wondering if this guy is able to automate that registration process, or if he is actually sitting there and typing in new account info.

So are these knuckleheads really trying to "sell" something;
or is it a form of "tagging"?
"hopefully someone local to him will beat him senseless"
I agree, but its probably not PC!
Just sayin'...

I think this particular guy is claiming to be able to do anything whatsoever that you need done, per the rather long list of his alleged capabilities, and while I cannot claim to know how or what he would do to whoever were to actually respond to him, I CAN say that I don't think it would go well for the responder.
 
The REALLY amazing thing I noticed just today was a news article about some claimed Jamaican lady's psychic network, where they had managed to literally take in close to a BILLION dollars from idiots that called in and were charged by the minute for reading.  As long as those folks exist, THIS guy will exist.
 
And in terms of the beating senseless advocacy, I would claim pro-active self defense, as he keeps claiming he can put the heebee-jeebies on me from afar, with his voodoo schmoodoo.  :)

In a way this situation is becoming unexceptionable and a bit of an insult to the regulars who stop by each day to see if they can either learn something or help someone else.
We collectively  serve as a huge asset to Cakewalks marketing and customer service dept. 
Without the forum and it's longstanding and never tiring "helpers" my guess Sonar would not be where it is today. Sonar is a "community' based product and it's fan club is it's best asset. 
 
Go into a large music store and mention Sonar, none of the salespeople will have a clue. 
In my town everyone uses Logic, Cubase and Pro Tools. Two Sonar users here just switched to Pro Tools so they can all collaborate. 
I am probably the only one left who turns out albums using it. 
 
Any how I hope the Admin takes a good look at this situation and takes action, it is totaly not fair to dump this problem on the members. I spent 5 or so minutes taging spam the other day and stopped half way down the endless posts. Why should I do this I cried! I could have been replying to a few posts instead. 

There is something satisfying about being able to flag spam. Its a lot better then being helpless and having to stare at it only. 
 
I also agree with Bob about beating the spamer senseless. Too bad we can't!

There is NO need for any one guy to flag all of those.  I am usually up at around 5-6 EST in the US, and will pick up whatever is left over.
 
We'll get em between all of us.
 
There is not currently a better way to do it - hang in there.

I think Cakewalk's solution to the spam is very effective.
 
I tend to be on here first thing in the U.K., and don't mind flagging a few spam.
 
There are obviously like minded people on here.  Sometimes I will be the first to flag an influx of spam, but by the end I am the third, or they have all disappeared.
 
Sometimes you can see this idiot posting, and yet they disappear as quickly as you can open his threads.
 
I knew this would happen, my Voodoo Guru told me it would.
 
And it only cost me £600, my bank details, and all my passwords..
 
I should have seen that coming..

The only problem is the voodoo guru seems unable to predict his own future for his posts. Odd don't you think? I mean being a guru and all shouldn't he see how his posts will be received? Could it be he is a fake as opposed to a real voodoo guru??
