Spammers be gone...

They were exploiting a loophole in our spam filter. I just rewrote a patch that closes it. Should prevent them from showing up 99% of the time now.

thx,

Wayne

Thank you! I've been forced to visit the forum far less often in order to not have to shift through the spam, this is great news!

Thanks a million.

Hey, can you add a "like" button at some point so we can show support for a comment without adding a new one?

I'll have to look, I think there's a thread rating or like button.

After a false start today, the spammers should be gone. I closed their loophole for good this time.

Thread ratings are nice, but if there's a like button option for individual posts, turn that rascal on for us.

Thanks!
