Well it looks like someone / something has learned a new way to get around our verifications. :mad:

There have been 4 spammers so far and I only imagine it will get worse.

Careful clicking on any links or addresses that are in posts that aren't from one of the seasoned members!

And as always please report the threads / posts so we can wipe them out.

It is easy to stop the spammers before they ever get to type 1 letter on the website. I have run a VBulletin forums for 10 years, and not one spammer has gotten by me. You have to do your do diligence before they can be approved.
This next statement will probably get me kicked off, but I don't believe that the owner of the site cares much about the site itself. I offered my help and expertise to resolve the apostrophe problem, but it wasn't wanted.

other site have been helping run was spam attacked a week ago. Maybe 300 spam registrants a day for a few days. was able to manually stop most once I caught it happening. Kept changing our registration questions till they no longer new the answers then added a good bit more for the registration process to cycle thru.

One of my sites has been attracting a lot of attention in both the registration and contact forms. However, I use a honeypot module that traps 99% of them, so I personally have to deal with only a few per day.
