I figured they were from some offshore types of people but you never know nowadays and I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

How is this possible. Even my own little discussion board has a couple dozen layers of protection for the members and we're certainly not a big time operation like this one. Is there actually a full time administrator of this site? or at least a webmaster of some sort.

If you'll report these people to me, Lau, Sinsboldy, or Quatermass, we'll ban them.

Are you in effect saying that the site has no security?

I'm saying that when the membership reports problems we work to get them addressed.
