Afternoon.
We are currently mopping up after close on 100 (and that's just the last count) spammers posted all over our boards last night and this morning.
Thank you for all your reports. We hope you'll understand that we're not going to reply to them. Please take it as read that we're really grateful.
IMPORTANT: we think we have tabs on pretty much all of the spammers now, so (even if we haven't deleted them all yet) so there is no need to report any more. In fact, any more reports and our system might keel over!
Once we can see the wood for the trees, we'll post again and ask you to report any remaining spam posts we might have missed.
Please bear with us. We are getting there.
Any Qs, do post em here and we'll do our best to answer you.
They're in baby names advertising a "live event" streaming which has already finished. Ignorant twazzocks.

MNHQ are going to need a crate of gin after tonight 
You need a "Break Glass in Case of Emergency" type delete button which regular posters get access to when there's a site invasion

All over? For tonight anyway...
Can't help thinking that HQ might need something more like this after tonight!

Hello, hello - calling Tech and MN HQ - we need you!
Ooops - forgot this was here and have reported some of the more idiotic stuff.
Sorry! 
right. we need captchas
we also a need a maximum number of new posts per poster.
we also really need an ignore poster button.
and maybe you guys might also want to delegate the delete button to some of us international mumsneters who are still awake now.

That wouldn't have helped last night. I history checked a few if them and they'd already registered a few days ago. HQ did a good job last night, but it is a little disappointing when they keep telling us things are in place, then they all bugger off at 2 am and give the trolls free reign.
