I'm going to look into it after I get some sleep. Assuming he isn't incapacitated, I think taking our money back is the only way we'll get him to pay attention.

I am really starting to think that something bad has happened to John. I just can't believe that he would let this happen to GC if he could help it. He has done a LOT for this board for many, many years. Something serious must be going on. I just wish that he had trusted one of the super mods with the authority to take over all functions, in the event that he was unable to manage the board.

I am not sure why the spam blockers aren't working. Now we have moviqqw posting the same stuff as jijgobaba. It seems all you have to do is change your user id and keep on posting.

This is getting way too out of control and ridiculous. I would love to see some analytics showing how much legitimate traffic and postings have gone down lately. It's getting so that I don't want to even check in anymore or lurk.

Guess what Spammers? NO ONE is reading your posts or clicking on your links.
GO AWAY! This isn't the blog where you can make any money!

Seriously this ^^.
My question is what might be the motivation for a spammer to repeat the same (or similar) spam over and over? And why all the crazy nonsensical “words”? I’m more likely to click on a link that looks legitimate – and if there is only one of them.
The only thing I can think of is that they (the person or persons posting the spam) are paid by the post. Frankly, unless they are being paid per post, it seems like a waste of time and effort on the spammers part as they are not likely to get much or a “return” from mass posting.

I hate that some of the spam is about Oakley sunglasses. The dad of 1 of our UCLA members is an executive there. Cool factory, though -- very "Metropolis".
