Default Forum under attack!

Russia?
Honestly I guess the forum supervisors / forum founder etc is doing a lousy job regarding security. All these robots are bombing us with all these crappy entries. INCREASE LEVEL OF SECURITY before the forum falls into pieces.

I can easily setup a new one for us if needed. (3 hrs) Then we all can work together to setup stickies and start all over.

Difficult to free a forum from these robots when they have infested the site...

There is nothing wrong with Spam, have you tried it with bacon and eggs?

I hate spam. Can I get a side of bacon instead?
Lets not jump ship yet. I'm sure the mods are doing what they can.
They have lives too. Give them some time to get it sorted.
I have seen this happen on other forums and it has always gotten resolved.
I'm not sure how as I'm not an I.T. guy but things take time.

I do not follow.. If you want to setup a nice fully working forum with nice add-ons 3hrs is quick.

I'm sure we would have a new photo gallery for Swedish chicks if Fubu started one. So there is an upside to his idea.

The Spaceport.us (where I am a mod) has been under attack from Russia as well. A lot was changed, but they got in again.

Our admins are working on a different, tougher registration procedure, and other measures which are way above my head.
