The spam issue
Well, I'm beginning to see it happen; the bots appear to be creating user pages. Not too different from other spam pages, but still contain links I won't dare click.
Also, lots of the normal spam pages have not been deleted for a long amount of time; they're beginning to pile up, I'd assume.
I could have sworn that a couple of months ago, someone was deleting the spam pages and the bot accounts that were creating them...
Am I just over-thinking the situation? Because for all I know, I'm just over-estimating the amount of spam pages.
Is there a way to combat this or do we just have to deal with it for now?
