Did someone hack the Chatter Forum?
I see where I can buy a plasma welder and calm my stomach down with plavix.
:lol:

Many of the forums (fora? ) have been hacked recently. Joe usually manages to catch and delete them in a few days. There's a link on the Index page to 'mark all read' so you don't have to visit every item.

These SPAM posts have been appearing every few days for at least the last 6 months.

One of the first things I do every morning is find and delete them along with the account that posted them.

When I have time, I'll look for a better solution.
Best,

If you go to Members, select All, and sort by web page, you'll see many members that might be worth deleting.

There are a few people (Bob and Doron for example) who are real users; but I bet most of the others are spammers.

I doubt that SmisttoitoTot uses Promatrix.
