I'm getting that too! So far it seems to be confined to the Off-Topic forum.

It appears to have been fixed.
Also, I don't know if it's just me, but I haven't really noticed any spam since Skul implemented that thing for new users of the forum. I could be wrong though, I just don't recall seeing any spam lately, and spam is one of those things that you notice if it is there but you completely forget about it if it's not there.

I've just logged on. Usually, there are a few spam posts, but there are none (at the time or writing this). Spam still gets through, posts just have to be approved first, meaning the only ones who will see it are forum staff. But there were none when I looked last. Of course, it could just be that Earl has finished deleting any posts and I just missed him by a few minutes, but hopefully the spammers have learned they're not going to get their precious spam posted. In fact, I've even disabled signatures for new members until they pass 12 posts, so newly registered spammers can't put URLs on the forum without even posting.
