Perhaps the porn sites redirected the spam as well. Thus, you have a hybrid, Spamographic material, in which nude models hold faux-Coach purses strategically in front of their naughty parts.

EDIT: at 9:10 PM EST I see 6 spammers all starting accounts simultaneously. This is ridiculous.

I just came on now before bed, and three sub-forums are headed by spammer posts - from different spammers (at least by name). Is it the spambot apocalypse part 2?

Three cheers to The Barrow Wight for very quick action on the spammer deluge. Swift bans are a welcome sight.

I cannot agree more! But they just keep spamming! Where did all o' them come from all at once? Even now, I see 10 members online, and 5 of them are already predestined to be banned. Since when did we get such high numbers?

Quite a number of members with suspicious screennames on here right now. Of course I could be misjudging them. It could be that 7xsdfs7d304, jingsd304 and the rest are just innocent Tolkien enthusiasts...

Wow, I cross-edited with your post about the exact same thing. Since when are there so many at the same time?

Their names will show in our list as new members. But they can't post. And they will disappear from the member list when I delete them.

Ah, ah, good! I saw one numerical member post and wondered if somehow the numbers allowed them to slip through.

Thanks for the improvement.

I hope the moderating won't interfere with your running adventures.

The similarities with the names points to a common source. I've seen some of their posts in French. I hope we haven't angered CJRT?

Did I hear "running" is among the BW's pastimes? Is there another Downer besides me who gets up at 5 AM only to go sweat and get sore mucles?

Still no new re-directs. Hopefully, any members who took a temporary leave from the forum for that reason will return now.

I'm fairly sure this is related to the earlier glitch problem - has anyone else been signed up on the Russian Brides site? I (or rather, my email address) was, and by the name Jesper at that! Alas I was negligent enough to delete my account before checking out what kind of fake profile they'd made for me.

That's pretty bizarre. I never had any issues stemming from the re-directs, to my knowledge. I did spend last week having to re-install my anti-virus program, but that seemingly had nothing to do with this forum.

Hi, Fernie, reading light on dark can be harder for some people. I will let the powers answer your question but if you scroll down the page to Thread options and click on show printable version it will show as plain black on white. Hope that helps.

This is a relatively minor matter, but the past several days I've had problems with the forum loading.

I get 'connection timed out' messages, and when the pages finally load, sometimes the icons are missing.

It doesn't seem to be happening on other sites.

I haven't had any issues. Maybe something your end? What about other servers?

I'm not seeing any issues with other sites. It's odd.

This is actually my second attempt making this post. The first timed out.

Is the only image you are able to see a pair of burnt, withering hands encompassed in flame? If so, I suggest you get your Palantir serviced.

The Palantír warranty expired the year 1030 of the First Age. Since I'm not paying Noldor, Inc. for shipping Over Sea, parts, and labor, I'll just get a cheaper alternative.

For the last couple hours I've been redirected to a white-and-blue themed search site with various suggested LOTR search terms when I tried to get to this site. I have no idea what that was, but it was somewhat amusing. Did anyone else witness that teleportation?

Downers on Facebook contacted the Barrow Wight about the problem and Mithadan was able to find out how to correct the domain issue, which the BW promptly did.

Voila, the Downs is back in town. Is there an elvish word for voila?

Welcome back the Barrow-Downs.
