I've made the whole forum read-only for the moment while I work out how to kill the current round of spam which was disturbing and wrong and something readers of this forum shouldn't ever have to see. No matter how fast I deleted it there was always a chance someone would see it.
Sorry if it inconveniences anyone. DM me if you know a good span killer for phpbb3.
Thanks

Most are done by bots and they can't read the Verification Text Box.
If you have this it should stop most of them.
Manual Spammers will be a lot more difficult. :)
It may be colder here, but there is always a warm welcome in Scotland.
