So apparently we're getting hit with a large number of spammers as of late.

I've been able to tell they are all coming from connections in Russia, so I put up a block on that part of the 'net.  That I know of, none of our players are in Siberia...

Hopefully, this will keep things down.  There's other anti-spam measures in place, but they only work if there isn't actually a person reading the forums (instead of a Bot), and apparently some spammers are paying people to spam on forums for them.  ::)

What you need is one of those thingies that traces it back and sends a bajillion watts into their system.  Of there is not something like that, you could make a bundle when you develop one.
