This seems to be a new tactic. This member shows an IP address from the Russian Federation, which I think was the same area as the last mass spam posting a few weeks ago. And a week or two back, we had the same thing, 40 spam posts on after another. Pretty sure it's a spambot.

Thanks Rik.
Strangely though they all only contained a single link to a US hunting site forum that had thousands of posts.
It's just a PIA as it shows there are new posts across all forums.
I'd agree re a spam bot as all the posts were made over a tiny time period, seconds in fact.

Gary, there must be a Forum setting that ensure Posts can only be posted after a period since the last post. It would stop a spambot but the regular frequency of Posts would be a dead giveaway.
I now have view of only 8 of 35 Posts for today; I assume that the missing 27 were down to the deletion of the spambot attack?
