Sorry guys, we are currently under attack from Porn spammers,
DO NOT click on their links
DO NOT post on their threads as it makes deleting them slower
I have also set the amount of posts people can make to one every 300 seconds while we clean the board up.
Sorry again, should be back to normal in 20 minutes or so.

Here's me thinking it was a new money making enterprise  (joke)
Now to be serious. It is a shame these things happen. I take it these people created membership just to post. It is rather sad that they do this. Do they realy thing that people here are stupid enough to click on such thngs? Oh well lack of intelligence on there part and a complete waste of time.
Good luck with the clear up it looks like a pretty intensive spam attack you have your work cut out. |

we're almost thru it, I had set the flood interval to 5 minutes between posts, that seems to of killed it.
Hope my mum doesn't catch me running this Porn site

Thanks for that. 
When people reply to spam posts it makes it a lot harder for us to find them to delete them as a legitimate member becomes the last poster on the thread. That way we miss them. The best plan is not to reply to any spamming but to leave it for deletion, works out quicker that way.
