Sorry about the spam guys. A few months back I turned off our software based spam filter and replaced it with a network based filter (as we were having a lot of false positives, especially new members posting photos). It seemed like it was working until this latest influx.
I have re-activated the old spam filter so hopefully that will help. I expect some will get through from accounts already created but hopefully the lions share should be dealt with.
It’s always a balance, to be honest, especially with so many people choosing to use vpn’s etc. I can’t block all spam without blocking the occasional legitimate post.
Bear with me for the next week or so, I may make some changes but I don’t want to change too much at once.
In the meantime please have patience and please keep reporting the spam (and not commenting on the posts)
Thanks!
