Somebody opened the windows and let the stink out. Now we can breathe again, until the next onslaught no doubt. For now - many thanks.

Must admit the spam frustrated me so much that I hesitated to go on the forums. Trying to wade through to the legitimate replies.
But I am so glad that it is gone now.
Love Fodors.

Thanks, moderators! I love Fodors and was really frustrated with the nonsense! It is good to have your forum back to normal.

Don't count your chickens until they're hatched. And there is some hatching going on right now.

Well, it's 11PM in California and the Korean spam is back. Where's the broom and the bleach?

I keep having these dreams where I walk into this small, cluttered, room in Korea where a youngish chap is sitting in front of a computer.

I have a baseball bat.

We know we can use The forum 24 hours on a Sunday.
We also know these bots are human piloted.

Those of us on Europe time just woke up to another spate of this nonsense. I fail to see why Fodors can't controll this sh*it.

No big deal. I have stuff to do today that's more important, but why a company can't control this is beyond me.

Seeing that the spam times match working hours East Asian Time, there must be a human being behind it.

I like the imagination of the baseball bat. I'd target not the young chap, who is probably doing a stupid and badly paid job, though, but smash his computer to pieces.

cvfweret will be in the top ten posters on the board reader this week. His old screen names are now 8 and 9 on the top ten.
