    That's a rather big and very annoyed sounding spam attack. Looks like someone has got the hump with the abuse team and created 30 ID's then spammed the first two pages of every board on MSE overnight!

    As far as I can see, almost every new member that has joined since 4:30am this morning has been part of the spam team, I have only see 2 others that have posted about other stuff.

    most of them don't get in until after 8am, there are a couple of BG's in and they are removing threads from their own boards but they are being replaced almost as quickly.
  • Well he seems to have a fetish for this board at the moment. Maybe the BG's elsewhere are active.
