...a daily occurrence.
The filters get most of it.
I catch a lot the morning they sign up.
Some get through.
If you see a spam thread, please hit the report button. All the mods see the reports and one will kill it, with prejudice.
But they have found a new avenue the mods cannot see unless you report. They have begun sending private messages (conversations) which don't normally show for mods.
Admins like James may be able to see them, but he'd probably have to actively search them and he's just not going to do that. It would be a lot of extra work for him and he's not going to invade everyone's privacy just to find the few spammers who have discovered this route.
So, if you get a spam private message (conversation), hit the report button. The mods will see it and one will kill it.
Thanks for helping us to keep the site spam-free.
