For those lucky enough to see it, we were "attacked" by a bot that posted thousands of junk messages on our forums. Most of them are now removed. Any other ones will get taken care of eventually.

Basically, someone sets a script that comes to the site and posts messages over and over again. It's not a real person, just a machine, if you will.

I have also enacted a feature that will hopefully make it so that this doesn't happen again.

Thank you for your patience. :)
