    Well it was just a matter of time, with no Admins around to keep order the spam bots have taken over the board.
    At first I tried deleting the threads but they were posting as fast as I could delete them.
    The Admin has been notified via eMail numerous times.

    I have currently deleted over 4,000 posts that were spam related from this latest attack.
    No easy task since each posts takes 3 clicks to delete.  Angry

    I have freed up most of the threads, I will work on the rest as time allows, there are about 3,000 remaining.

    OK, who wants to buy me a new mouse?  Grin I have so far deleted over 7,000 useless spam posts. I'm trying to keep up, I had all forums cleaned except a couple Chinese model threads then a new spam bot showed up. I'm keeping up with that one but I have better things to do than delete thousands of needless posts.
    Wish I had the power to just delete the members that are posting that crap.
