They are link spam designed to influence search engines and they're being posted by captured zombie computers.

I agree they are annoying, but I've deleted 600 of them over the past day and I've got some new defenses coming on line soonish.

Sorry for the hassle.

Yeah I don't see this one being ?????'s fault. There ain't much he can do now since they have already started posting. Hopefully the new program he uses will stop it and delete the old posts but they are al over the place. Just realize they are mostly posting in the general discussion section and most of the topics have to do with drugs, pharmaceuticals and such.

If you want to see more about Zombie Computers see this:

I would not doubt that ERAC is behind this. Just kidding but I at least wanted to be the one to start that theory.

I've temporarily banned unregistered users from posting in an effort to suppress the link spam messages. I hope to have a permanent solution this weekend.

Sorry for the trouble.

Translation:

I'm using this as an excuse to go back to a format that I liked, but got pummelled for using the last time. Permanent solution= Let this fly as long as I can until people bash me again

I'm a giant tool

I recommend you make it permanent. If you want your site to be a serious venue where people remedy and prevent wrongs, you should use good search engine references to gain traffic instead of letting losers lash out at new users like myself. Quite honestly, my opinion of ERAC is more FAVORABLE since visiting this site. It appears to me, assuming many posters are legitimate ex-ERAC, that the company improved when these people left. Maybe Enterprise is effective at forcing the dregs out of their company and the posters are just bitter about it.

OK, unregistered users are allowed to post again, but now they have to do one of those "type in the characters you see" things that helps weed out automated posting systems.

Let me know how it works.
