classylady Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 Am I imagining it, or lately has there been a lot more spam posted? I seem to have come across quite a few lately. I'm a night owl so I'm checking lds.net pretty late at night and that's when I seem to see them. Quote

estradling75 Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 We are having more. (Its the down side of rising popularity of the site)Since the mods do sleep the spam posts might take awhile to be cleared out. Just continue to report and we will get to them as soon as we can. Quote
pam Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 We are also hoping that with a new software upgrade coming in the next couple of months that it will alleviate this problem. Quote
prisonchaplain Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 I used to like Spam--especially with eggs, and cheddar cheese on top. Lately though, it's become rather salty. :-) Quote

Most of these kind of spammers aren't actually people, they're just programs. Quote
NeuroTypical Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 Thanks to everyone who keeps reporting the spam! It makes mod life a bit easier. Quote

Most of these kind of spammers aren't actually people, they're just programs.A couple that we are considering do have CAPTCHA. What I've been looking into is a software that requires an account be validated before a post can be made. It would knock out 95% of the spam that we are currently getting. Quote
