For those of us in Europe it pretty means we don't participate anymore, as 12 hours out of our day the site is clogged with Korean spam. Fine with me, as I've got lots to do around here, and telling people how to get into Paris from CDG gets old after awhile. I miss the trip reports from literate, interesting people, but meh...life moves on.

I'm not a tecchie, but it does seem to me that it ought to be pretty plain and simple to fix this - I've seen similar problems fixed on much less-frequented sites. Which leads me to believe they just don't care. Well, neither do I.
