Spam problem
It looks like most of the news items are getting swamped with spam. I have reported loads but the spam is still there.

Here are some :

Unfortunately the forum moderators cannot remove spam from news items. Someone on staff will have to remove them.

Send an email to Amy, she's always quick to react when she's working, and sometimes even when she's not (working).

Hi Karen,

I deleted them yesterday, but it is helpful if you report spam that you see as it's quicker for me to delete them that way - so if/when you see more please don't hesitate to report it.

And like Reinardina says, please feel free to email if I miss the report too.

Thanks,

Amy

Hi Amy, I am sure I did report a few of them but maybe it didn't go through. I hope they stop soon because it just took me 3 goes to post a comment on the photo of the day! :-)
