Bump
I log on usually pretty early in the morning, and always look under "New Posts" where there are always a gazillion spam threads.

This year as a whole also saw 57% of all of the bans over the last 3 1/2 years. Not all of those bans were spammers, but I doubt the difference would be significant. What's really noteworthy is these are the numbers of individual usernames that were banned, not the number of actual posts that had to be deleted.
All I can say is, somebody must be getting paid if they're out in these kinds of numbers.

I dunno, it just seems like 3 years ago when I was a new member, we never had this problem, nowhere near as much as it's happening now. We're even getting movie spammers. That's never happened. Movie spammers? C'mon. That's ridiculous. I mean, what's next? And I'm not complaining about the mods or anything. I think you all are doing the best you can, and that's all you can do. It's just that I was wondering can John do something about it?

You didn't come off mad. I think you're doing a good job.

Here's a tip folks. Just because you can't see one of us online, doesn't mean you aren't being watched.
