SPAM on the forums

Hi guys

At the moment, there seems to be a plague of spammers.

We have banned all of them to date and deleted the posts of most. There are some spam bots which have created hundreds of posts with (currently) 2 user accounts and deleting the posts individually is impossible (given the time us moderators have available).

The admins (PR staff members) have been advised and asked to batch delete these posts.

In the meantime, if you report the spams, that just gives us moderators more work to do, so instead of checking user posts, deleting spams and banning spammers, we end up dealing with reports which we are already aware of.

Many thanks for reading this and helping us to keep this forum as clean as possible.

Peter
