Is this the place/way to alert Moderators that the forum is being used for advertisements?Both the foreign language threads are ads with links to web sites unrelated to revival. Secular solicitation.
I've noticed the adverts too.

Brother Greg I don't beliieve its a complaint of SI using Advertisements but Spambots using the Forum to advertise random things like Purses, shoes, etc. I must have missed them because I usually do a pretty good job of notifying you of these.I believe the best course of action is to simply send brother Greg an email with the username, a link to the thread posted, and maybe a very brief expression of why you think its a Spambot or someone taking advantage of Sermonindex's forum.God Bless,Matthew

Have you thought about implementing a CAPTCHA to prevent the spambots? Or something as simple as asking the poster to answer a very simple math question to verify it is a human user?
