@turboman: English only on the forums, please. We're having a difficult enough time managing the spam without dealing with false positives and mistakenly nuked accounts.
As an aside the fact that any threads the spambots post in remain bumped even once the spam message is deleted is a bummer, since there are loads of random necro threads taking up the early pages on Recent Discussions now.
I've been complaining about this for years, it didn't used to be this way. Will just put in a ticket last week to have this behavior reverted to how it originally was, so now deleted posts won't be taken into account for the age of a most recent reply.
Mods needs to give a couple of Europeans some mod powers. This shit is getting cray cray.
We have plenty, but there is only so much we can do when the spam threads are coming in literally every 5 seconds. It's an engineering issue, not a moderation issue. They're working on it I assure you.
At any rate, yes it's spam and yes the engineers know about it and are working every day to figure out a solution.
