We are getting so much automated spam, I have never seen it like this before. I might have to take the site down for a while until I can change some things.

Ok... a looong time ago when I wrote the site's software I added a spam check that will suspend users if they post something that contains a list of "spam phrases". I never turned it on because I was scared of catching legit users. So I'm gonna turn this on, at least for a bit. So if you get busted accidentally just email me and I'll sort it out.

Going to start using this more often now. The porn spam we get usually starts with the phrase "I enjoy watching ___" so will probably add something along those lines.
