Seems like there are a bunch of bots that are targeting this website as a link farm. Admins????

@youngwerther This is a battle we've been fighting for a long time. It tends to come and go in waves, and right now it is particularly bad. I routinely spend a half hour or more deleting it in the morning, and often repeat that later in the day. It's a large pain in the butt. I know the admins have been working on different fixes over the last few months, even longer. It's proving really difficult.

Yep it's definitely not new and although the admins have tried like...one thing to try to stop it...I feel like they haven't been prioritizing it enough. Aren't they embarrassed?

Can't they just stop new accounts from posting more than one link in the thread? Seems like an easy as [edited by Forum mod ladylazarus1971 for language] fix. Devs????
