The site owners can not even remove outdated cars, get the database in order, retain their moderators and update the home page in a timely fashion? Why would anyone think they would remove a spammer anytime soon?

GreenHybrid was once a premier Hybrid site - now it just is fading into the vast clutter on the internet.

Banned - all posts deleted, and we have installed a spam blocker on the site that should reduce the likelihood of his return

The amount of spam on this site is unbearable. When I search for new posts, most of them are from spammers. I know that it's hard to control spam, but I'm afraid that browsing the forums is now an exercise in frustration. Please help. Thanks.
