Or a different one?

When you first go to the website (OIC) it shows a header reading Imperial web pages with listing for Imperial by year, literature, cars for sale, etc.

For the longest time the classifieds didn't show up at all. Got an error message. Now they are a long list of spam.

Great website otherwise.

Yeah, it appears they were hit by some bots. I know they are looking for people to help with their site. I volunteered a few years ago and lets just say I ran into a lot of friction trying to help them out and decided to just part ways.

As for the spam, I was also having issues with spam here on these forums and had to turn off new registration for a while until I could get the Captcha setup. With the dawn of AI, you almost have to use captcha or something similar to stop the bots.

Hm, imagine, someone asking for help and then resisting it.

Thanks for everything you do Adam. I log in every day. One of these days I might even contribute something of my two Imperials.

Glad you are enjoying the forum! We have some great people on here (like yourself), even if it is a bit quiet at times.

I was wondering that too. Much of their site needs updating,Been on it since 1998 !
