Enjoy yourselves!

Excellent news! Vally, you are our savior!!

Perhaps I will repost something shortly. I have nothing new to add, as of yet.

I'm glad to hear that Vally!

Apologies to all those who got hit by the spambot ReFlashKesk today.

Unfortunately, because it was sending out PM's and not posting on the forum, it did not come to my attention until I myself received a message.

We do (lightly) monitor new accounts, checking to see if profiles include links to external sites (typically a good indictor of a spam account), and keep an eye on those that do. We can't however act until we are sure it is a spam account, hence the bot being active for a couple of hours before being taken down.
