Yes it does.

It's been a morning of report, read post, report, make coffee, report, report, report.

If the mods like the help in reporting the spam threads, then may I suggest removing the 60 second limit? I have stopped reporting the spam threads because of it. It is a huge deterrent.

It's been a while since I last visited GC. Thought I'd stop by this morning to see if things have improved with the whole spam thing. They haven't. I can only assume John no longer cares. Oh, well.
Maybe I'll check back in in another month or so...

GC has turned boring and lame with or without the spam. I can only assume that nobody cares since nobody is posting.

Eh, I come to GC primarily for recruitment and expansion news. It's kind of the in-between season for both of those.

I see no spam right now. Thanks to whoever was responsible. Can we keep it this way? Please?

I don't get it, When I signed up I had to first post in a specific thread to prove I'm not a bot. Perhaps just changing the sign up procedure might help??

Is this procedure not in place anymore? I still see the thread but the spammers seem to be able to create threads without posting there first. In the many years I've been a member this is the WORST I've ever seen in regards to the spam.

John - are you even out there? Please advise as to the reason this spam problem is pervasive and why it's not being addressed.
The supermods must have "spam extinguishing fatigue". This is really absurd.
