Whats up with all the spam posts?
Seems the site is being attacked by spam this week...
Site hasn't been hacked has it? Posts on phone sales showing up but no link...weird!

Re: Whats up with all the spam posts?
Well, the bigger a website becomes (and the longer it's been around), the more spam it is likely to attract. Just kinda the way it goes. I have yet to see any here, so apparently the Mods are doing a great job at keeping it at bay! Thanks Mod staff, as always!

Re: Whats up with all the spam posts?
Folks, switch to GMail. The only company reading your e-mails will be Google (and sometimes hackers), total privacy against spam guaranteed.

Re: Whats up with all the spam posts?
the more likely culprit is that the spam bot is in your computer and its posting adds on to any blank space that comes up i don't see any spam but i do have fortress of blocking and scanning programs to aided in there capture

Re: Whats up with all the spam posts?
Dunno. I haven't run into any spam, yet. But believe me, if I do, I'll be right back to report it! Hate spam, even with mayo, lettuce, & tomatoes!
Thanx Mitchel! Almost forgot what it looks like! |

Re: Whats up with all the spam posts?
People use scripts to post that spam to thousands of forums in one click. We thwart 99.9% of it using technology (filters, algorithms, etc.) but some gets through. And when it does, we clean it up promptly. If you see a spammy thread just click the report post icon to alert the staff and it'll be dealt with promptly.

Re: Whats up with all the spam posts?
ya you guys are doing a great job... but the link still shows up in the recipe section when you are on the front page. But when you clik on the link it is an invalid link.
