Hey,

So this situation first cought my eye, when i got a PM from somebody i don't know called SalientSally asking me (the randomly picked person out of all of us) to review a book she wrote. Anyway i wasn't falling for that one and didn't take the bait as i would never do that sort of thing with a member that has only 1 post, and i didn't trust.

Anyway, now theres all sorts of threads about crap, now i'm seeing Porn? (come on man think about the kids), get better credit cards etc and tattoos??

Whats happening?

The spam bots have probably figured out a work around for this version of vBulletin.
