    Yeah, the ba$tard hit about 40 users. And it's not even the spammer's account, they guessed a password and got into an existing members' account. I have some countermeasures in place to slow them down, but not before that one got in apparently.

    And PM spamming has to be the stupidest form of spam ever. It will never help with search engine rankings, and no one with a brain is going to click a link in an obviously spammed PM.

    I can't even submit them to Stop Forum Spam because they used stolen credentials instead of creating their own.
