I noticed that too and reported most of them already. same post but always a different username.

Either that one can't wait for a response or wants to bog down the forum. Might need his IP to be blocked

Late to the party. But I see it too. We might need a few more moderators. At least someone that can clean up each day.

Anything posted multiple times is spam. Content does not matter. And when they are posted by multiple accounts. That is a sign that it it automatically generated.

Ian spent a lot of time installing site add-ons to help prevent these attacks. Those add-ons are now likely outdated needing updated or even replaced.
