Dear Board Members,

Twice this month the BPM Research Forum was attacked by spammers that used the PM system to flood all board members with messages. The perpetrators have been deleted, their IP addresses banned, and a patch in the IPB software has been installed to disable the PM system for users with a low post count. Once a member reaches 7 moderator-reviewed posts they will be promoted to the level of Senior Member and will be allowed to use the PM system again. Apologies for the inconvenience, and I hope these measures make the board a more informative place for all of us.

Best regards

Michael
