Well the new decade has brought a better breed of spammer to our shores peeps & some of you will no doubt have noticed some rather 'odd' new posts on threads which have long been dormant where the poster makes an 'on topic' remark but also just happens to chuck in a link to a website or blog which is clearly spam. Also some posts & threads which have either been moved or deleted, too.
Anyway just to let everyone know that its just a new breed of spammer problem for the decade ahead who has clearly done some customer service training, allowing them to participate in the general theme of the selected forum but 'accidently' just dropping a spam link into the equation as well. Feel free to report any post using the  icon at top right of the relevant post but rest assured that we're keeping a close eye on things in the meantime.
