What do we need to do about the spam posts that have been happening in the forum? I've seen a couple so far but didn't quite know what to do about them.

I usually just go with the report spam button. Wonder if there is a better way to keep them out. I forgot already, but is there a captcha verfication when creating a new account?

I don't recall if there is a captcha verification or not.

I deleted them.
There is a captcha in the sign up and there is also an email verification process.
So, it's got to be a human that is actually spamming.
Would you like to be added to Moderator group?

Cool. Yeah, it almost looked like somebody actually signed up but they were hacked. Oh the joys of computers.
I'd be ok with being added to the Moderator group if you wanted to do that. I spend enough time on here as it is.

Sure is. It's giving me the options and additional menus.
