Re: Have we been hacked?
The Russian 4th ward Relief Society was cleaning out its food storage closet and dumped its old spam. Occasionally a sex toy falls out too.
Thanks AllieOop for the clean up.

You're very welcome! Thanks to all those who reported them! I usually catch those more quickly, but wasn't on much that day. These seem to be occurring almost daily now (the Russian spam) and my advice is to not hit the translate button.

I also try to block IP address ranges of spammers as well as delete their logins and their posts. This site is developing quite a list of blocked address ranges from Russia, Ukraine, and Eastern Europe.
This is simply a function of how I allow anyone to make a login without requiring interaction beyond the Captcha screen. I can certainly understand why Dr. Shades insists on personally approving all new users on MormonDiscussions.com. We are not up to that point yet as I still enjoy deleting spammers and blocking IP addresses.

Yes, sometimes it's the most fun I have all day (this made me laugh)
