Why are we getting more and more spam posts recently? I know the mods are quick off the mark to delete them, but why is it so easy for this scum to create accounts to allow them to do this? Can't more safeguards be put in place? Just curious.
 
I've noticed this as well. I'm guessing the spam bots have figured a way to get around whatever protection there is. It's time to play that cat and mouse game and update something.
 
Ya it’s a constant battle but I haven’t really looked into it lately. I’ll look into it and see if we can further filter
