Magere Hein 1,400 Posted December 4, 2013 WHY is there soooo much spam on here at the moment?! Because, ATM, the spambots have the upper hand in the arms race against captcha software. DL staff are banning spammers like there's no tomorrow, but it always takes some time before that takes effect. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,974 Posted December 4, 2013 I think the most amusing thing about the spambots is that ever-so-high-profile threads such as the ones for Cliff Michelmore and Gough Whitlam are among the most popular targets. At least software targeting Michael Jackson makes some sort of sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,974 Posted December 4, 2013 Maybe amusing was the wrong choice of word... "confusing" perhaps? Didn't really mean to cause any offense and apologies if I did, as I'll be glad too when this spamwave dies off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
