Yes, throught our site was going down.

Yes HUGE!!

Not out of the woods yet. Some of the changes that were made recently were just a band-aid and did not resolve the problem...actually made it worse in that I was getting flooded with emails as a result.

I made some changes and I am still working to stop them completely. It appears that the vast majority of the spam accounts were coming from russia so I have put a ban in place to prevent just about anyone from Russia from joining...kind of sucks for them if anyone there actually owns a Stryker, but maybe later we can open it back up.

Added a few more bans and zapped at least 100+ spam accounts...THERE ARE STILL AT LEAST 100 MORE! :-[
