  • There's a big spam attack on MSE at the moment.
    The !!!!!!!!!!! are appearing as MSE are trying to sort it out.

    Please keep hitting the :spam: button.

    A huge thank you to everyone who's helped clear spam this morning - you really don't know how much you've helped by clicking the spam button!

    The strange text happened when we put a spam-busting measure in and our techies are working on it so don't worry about that.

    Here on the MSE Forum we fry up spam and make a MoneySaving omelette out of it :)
