A series of long and repetitive 'spam' type posts that recently managed to appear for a time on this forum and they looked to me to be written in Russian.
(Sorry if I confused, this should really be a subject for Mods to deal with for members probably :oops: )

The Mods are dealing with it as frequently as we can and as soon as we either spot the posts are are alerted to them. You don't want to know how many posts have been deleted or how long it takes. It's gratifying to know that that we are keeping far enough ahead that some people don;t see the rubbish. We are pressing for a solution to prevent the postings being made.

The mods should not have to be putting up with it as they already do a thankless task free :)

That's not on. Not only is this forum unstable, it's becoming a liability. :-?

Yes it's getting a bit weird. Presumably the software consultants that the club appointed to do this upgrade are contractually responsible for putting it right?
