Oh WOW! And a good link to the active 'Game Section' support forums there too. Thanks koz. 
I've now 'Favorited' that forum site. (the links on my Game Section (1.2 Final) install don't go there) Ironically I'm already registered on that forum as 'sport'.
Sadly it's loaded with tons of spammish posts -- the same ones that have been hitting one of my sites in recent months -- and, btw, that one doesn't have the Game Section installed.
I do believe some kind of aggressive moderation/spam control is in-order there to "kick-out" and "keep-out" those 'drug selling' spammers. Unfortunately the only one that appears to be capable of doing that, according to the 'Forum Team' list, is Paretje. And he seems to be missing...
There is an extensive list of "Support Team" members, but apparently none of them have been given Moderator privileges by Paretje and he is the one-and-only member listed as Admin.
Again, I hope Paretje did not fall on bad times, but I would suggest that one of the 'Support Team' members establish a new site/forum where spammers can be controlled so that legitimate Game Section support Q's & A's can continue without all those spam posts cluttering-up the forums.
Perhaps this discussion should be CLOSED here and ONLY continued on the REAL GAME SECTION COMMUNITY FORUMS where games can be downloaded and Game Section specific support is more readily available.
In other words, there's no reason to continually keep bringing this discussion to the 'top' of this forum on the MyBB forums when there's a dedicated forum site for such.
....
Hmmm...Why is there no "IGNORE" option (so that users can choose 'not to see' the spam posts on the Game Section Forums???
-- I have the 'Ignore User' option on my forums.
