26 Apr 2022, 05:41I know, it's incredibly frustrating. I've deleted nearly 400 spam posts today (just three "users").
It seems to go in waves, and does seem extra bad at the moment. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about php boards, so there's nothing more I can do than react and clear it out when it occurs.
On that, thank you to everyone who continues to flag spam posts. If there are multiple posts from the same account you only need to flag one of them. We'll purge the account and the posts at the same time.

I've made some changes that so far seem to have had a decent impact. I'll keep an eye on it.

We can't use reCaptcha as we don't have access to the Google account associated with this domain.
Today I've added a Q&A function (just a different anti-spambot measure) - here's hoping that helps along with the changes you made.
