Sorry going to moan!

I am fed up of seeing new posts of people advertising none related products - shoes and patio covers.

Outdoor lounge cover? Yes, bit annoying.
Joining just to sell a Zed is acceptable IMO, however joining a car forum to sell household tat is a bit much - off to eBay with you. :poke:

these are robots/bots.

not something you can control sadly, if you improve your security they will improve the bots and the spam will continue. It is an endless battle that moderators/admins will fight on.
