Spam posts
Did someone forget to shut the door behind them? There seems to be a whole load of spam getting in at the moment.

Re: Spam posts
Yes, I wonder what's kicked that off, haven't seen anything like that for ages and ages. A long time ago since I joined this group, I can't remember whether there was any sort of security around the joining process back then, and is there now? And interesting that these latest 3 posts all timed within 6 minutes of each other.

Re: Spam posts
Yes, moderators are aware of this latest burst of activity and hope it doesn't 'snowball' any further. Registration procedures may need tightening.
