Is everyone getting these spam PMs?
I haven't seen them. Although someone (probably a bot) is adding random tags to some old topics that I've noticed.

Who the hell would put a bot on this place? What possible gain or benefit are they aiming for?
Does anyone here want to buy a goddamn fake Swiss watch?
No, I definitely don't.

I haven't seen any spam PM's either.
Spam posts have been around almost as long as the forum has been around, spam tags are pretty old too, but they seem to be a rarity.
Well, one hour ago I got 2 more spam PMs... Why and who the hell does all this stuff?!??!

I got a dozen of them already. Yes, 12. Its starting to piss me off big time. so im going to give this idiot a piece of my mind. Theres a new one as well, saying the same thing. Same spambot with a new username.
It is really getting on my nervs, Jesus!

haha no kidding right? im starting to wonder if this is some wordpress glitch (due to the tags similarity to the posts), or some retarted spammer who is trying to annoy us all.

They don't care. Because it's a bot, it literally takes seconds to fill out and send duplicates of these.
Greedy idiots.
I wonder how they will be able to make money simply by sending such posts. But anyway, I am thinking it's about time we close the registration(temporarily) and well, how do we solve PM spambots?
Brad should really do something...

I am, haha. Think I got the tags cleaned out, bbPress's built in functions weren't working properly. Going through the PMs now.
Thanks. I just got 3 spam PMs right now... Which I obviously unscribed.

I haven't received any PMs in a while, I actually haven't checked whether the PM system has fixed itself or not (I recall it was broken a while back for some people).
Well, most of the hot tags have gone back to normal..
that's good.
