Spam Anti-Spam Upgrades

[Blake]

Hey guys,

Just letting you know I have applied a number of new anti-spam upgrades to the site. Its all behind the scenes stuff and pretty boring but it should improve site performance and reduce strain on the server so it can focus on Aussie bushcrafters rather than overseas spammers and bots.

Cheers,
Blake

dont you hate these spammers and bots, I had to remove a "help" email from my forum front page because the bots were sending constant spam. :-(

Hey Blake,
has anybody else noticed this site has been hacked. I keep getting redirected to a syrian army support website. I had to get here by an anonymous proxy to stop the redirection.
