    There was a deluge of spam this morning. Thanks to the members who reported it, I was able to delete the posts and ban the spammers within 30 minutes of their creation. The best part is that the accounts were still active while I was doing it (per the glowing green dot). So hopefully they navigated to a page and were greeted with a screen informing them that they are no longer welcomed.

    So thanks for the reports. If you see any new spam, please hit the [Report] button. All you need to do is type "spam" and click [Report Post].

    I appreciate all the mods hard work. If you've ever done it, you'd ask why anyone would do it.

    When Danny asked if I wanted to do it, there were two reasons I accepted:
    • I'm here regularly anyway.
    • I can't think of a better group of people. Seriously.

    I imagine they were bots, and took the blow rather phlegmatically, as bots will. :)
