Spam threads gone wild...

I had to use the "I'm not a robot" feature and thought it was a clever idea. In my case it was storefronts; it looked like Google street view. My only criticism was the images were poor quality.

Spam has infected this site. I'm looking less and less these last 2 month's.

Is there not a fix?

What I don't understand is that the offenders must know by now that their spam is a useless and futile effort to snag someone. I think it's more malicious in intent than we give credit. Cultural differences aside, they can't be that stupid and inept.

All the best,

I relly do not 'get' the overreaction to having to pass over a few (yeah maybe dozens) of CLEARLY spam posts/threads.. all at the top of the lists. never deep in them, none in good threads..I have seen a half dozen Korean threads. I have no need to click on them. Nor on any suspicious posts with headers to watch so fist fight, or whatever.. WHO CARES!!! I trust the powers that be are concerned and working on a solution. Other than that, my panties are not in a bunch over it. Nor should yours be either.           
I know audiophiles can be obsessive... . relax.
