Hmmm ... I wonder ... it hasn't yet posted on any of the many 'harrietvanders' threads.

Yes, it does. Good.

I've never seen so much activity on this board! I wonder who was today's most prolific poster?
I wonder if it might be H.V.

Just wondering: will they just delete the posts or the whole thread?

Looks like just the posts, which is good for the 'real' threads. I hope they also delete the whole threads, like this one, which refer to the incident though ...

I'd be surprised if they didn't - hardly good publicity for a forum to be full of threads warning people about it being full of porn....

Hi everyone
We've now removed all the offending posts and banned the user/spambot/whatever or whomever was doing this. Thanks for the heads up and sorry not to have been able to act sooner.
If we've missed any, do drop myself or another mod a PM and we'll get right onto it.
We'll raise the issue of weekend moderation with the team next week - it was just unfortunate today that none of us were at home and able to act when forums members got in touch.
Best wishes
Christine

This will be my last post from this computer! Got a brand new one (that hopefully works) today and am just taking it out of the box! See you all when I get it set up

I tried to get into forums yesterday (Sun) afternoon, (unusual for me), every time I tried it said 'too many users' . I guess this problem was the root cause of it !

Its when people add a post so that the thread gets to the top of the forum, and is hence the one people see on the 'Forum' menu and it also makes it more likely that people will see it before any less appropriate threads.
