Brandon,
Those of us on the message board have discussed this issue many times, but there seems to be no solution on our end.  There are message board "members" who continually spam the gallery with the same pointless comments (in an effort for points, I guess), yet they have no interaction with our board.  Today I received the same comment 4 times on layouts, including this one: http://www.acherryontop.com/gallery/148 ... 98#1107764
The comment is "very cute layout" and this is a layout of a memorial to my husband's dead grandfather!  I can't even pm the person so that I can tell her that her comment is not appreciated and inappropriate because she apparently doesn't have her pm's set up.  She has no posts on the mb.  The same person went all the way back to the beginning of my gallery, and there are a couple layouts where the photos have gone missing, so she commented "Can't see it."  I believe she is working her way through my gallery to leave her ridiculous comments, since the 4 from today are the next 4 in my gallery from the beginning. This type of thing is happening with many others and I, for one, am upset about the way they are using our gallery.  I don't know what the answer is, but maybe there could at least be a rule like other galleries have that you can't comment on layouts until you have submitted a certain number of your own layouts and/or posted to a certain number of threads on the message board?  It is just a thought.  I have tried to ignore it and just enjoy those comments that are sincere, but it really ticks me off!

I also just checked since this person has 23 layouts posted in the gallery and they were all posted on one weekend (exceeding our gallery courtesy limits), and they are of layouts she has made to obviously sell, since there are no photos on any of them.  I know there is probably not much you can do, but this just infuriates me...
