Ah, *now* I understand why it is that some are already banned when I go to ban them, and a message comes up that I can't ban them twice!
So, adrefefex was quite busy overnight as well, with 54 new threads that I not long ago deleted. Thanks for stopping the posts there, joost, otherwise we might have had another thePlenty record on our hands!

I can only ban, not delete. But then again, cleaning up is a woman's task

Oh, joost!
I think that's one of the best comebacks I've ever heard!

Awaiting Miss Cleanup, but for now I've banned a few spammers, and a few possible spammers too.

Mervi... It might be time to upgrade the countermeasures.

Gaaaaaaah, what is happening?!
RE: A few words about spam - 'thul - Apr-04-2013
Quite simple, really... Anti-spam countermeasures utilized here do not hold up to level of programming behind large numbers of spambots. Not really surprising considering that the site and forum doesn't have all that new base code.

Hmm, strange, I've seen Farseer twice online since yesterday, but no spam message has been removed yet.

I wasn't literally asking. It was obvious what was happening, that was just my panic voice.
