I just got on here for the first time in a few days and I noticed the first topic was "Adult Dating"
So, I though, I'll just flag this as spam - I replied stating "FLAG SPAM"
Then I went back to the forum and noticed that every other posting was also spam...
Well, Looks like it's time to start another unofficial SMART forum for us to share ideas and information.

I've changed the captcha settings.
I'll need to update the backend when I find time.

Looks like everything is work now.

Hopefully the reCaptcha will keep the bots out.

Thank you! I think I speak for everyone when I say we really appreciate this site. I know I check in daily especially since I am on pins and needles waiting for a reply from the app.

thirded!

If I didn't have the Unofficial SMART Forum to check every day, I'd just have to spend that time worrying about my application...and what fun would that be?
