I got the spam message, went to the site and wasn't impressed. Will send you the PM which I received. Thanks!

So... are we officially free of spam, or are people ignoring the request to report instances?

I haven't gotten anything, but I've also been here all of one day. Maybe I should take a look at my privacy settings before the flood comes.

Same here. Only 2 PMs and they were from the moderators.

That made me laugh, BlueCloud. It's been a day short of laughs, so thanks!

Yeah, I've been spammed by someone called "MacAllister". I just registered and immediately had a private message in my inbox from this person. I just took a quick look and immediately saw a link - obviously some sort of spam advertisement. Ts ts.

(For those without any sense of humor whatsoever - that was a joke.)

@Topic: Is this still relevant or have the spammers finally decided to turn their backs on this forum? Just wondering. Doesn't seem like there were any recent attacks. Since last year, actually. So technically, this thread could be unstickied/archived and if there were still some spammers, it could just be reopened if necessary. Just tryin' to help. :)
