Some punk spammer head is going and changing all of the links on our
pages to spam.

Who has authority to revert the changes, and who can keep punk heads
like this from doing such a thing? (ie - is there some way to
authorize which changes are made, and control who gets to make changes?)

Thanks,

Tim

I think the spammers are waiting until their registration gets old
enough that the new member restrictions expire, and then they do their
vandalism. Every time Google cracks down, they come up with another
way. It's a perpetual arms race.

Tim, It happens pretty regularly. People from the group just aren't
perusing those pages that frequently. I believe everyone has the
ability to update or rollback the pages. I turned on moderation for
new member which catches the email, but there isn't a way to block
page editing.
