Hello,

The link that you have provided (http://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-album/forum/topic/cardinals-vs-brewers-game-5-live-stream-watch-nlcs-online-free-mlb-playoffs-2011/) is not working – it leads to a “Page is Not Found” error. I really need to see a case of this user spamming your site to be able to take any action on our side.

Thanks!
