Please get rid, does it really take this long?

Apparently so. I have doughnuts here...I could waft them and hope the smell wakes them up.....

Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 02:20

Nice idea, I will do coffee pot.

When you do report stuff, how do you know if they have noticed?

OP posts:
DeepRedBetty · 03/03/2013 02:23

They (eventually...) get in touch, via email. Sometimes it takes HOURS!!!!

lubeybooby · 03/03/2013 02:24

They will post on the site stuff threads to say they are here. They don't reply personally to spam reports

DeepRedBetty · 03/03/2013 02:24

Also the only thing likely to attract their attention at this time of night is telling them someone's finished the Gin.

ClayDavis · 03/03/2013 02:25

Often they will send you an e-mail, but they're receiving so many reports about the spam that they are not sending e-mail responses.

mermaidbutmytailfelloff · 03/03/2013 02:25

Oh lubey I need coffees now

MissBlennerhassett · 03/03/2013 02:25

Yum, donuts! Could do with something sweet after rather too much spam.

GothAnneGeddes · 03/03/2013 02:25

I have never seen spamming and trolling like this. It is not on.

Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 02:25

Oh, To my own e-mither, or here? Blimey, it was hours ago it started.

I do wonder who would bother spammingMN with ads for live boxing etc- we're not an obvious target market. Could it possibly be the reference to 'fight club' in the AIBU talk guidelines has given someone the wrong impression...

Or could someone think it was a witty & clever thing to do? Maybe someone related to the trolls visitors with a couple of stupid threads in feminism at the moment.

Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 02:27

I have missed spam nonsense.

OP posts:
ClayDavis · 03/03/2013 02:27

The e-mail you registered your MN account with.

Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 02:31

Thanks ClayDavis

exexpat its the feminism ones I reported straight away so they have bigger probs to solve then, cause I was suprised it is taking this long.

OP posts:
ClayDavis · 03/03/2013 02:38

Just seen the threads you're talking about in feminism. I'd imagine you would get a response to those because its separate (and more serious I would have thought) than the spam problem.

If you want to know what spa is, just go to AIBU or baby names at the moment.

Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 02:40

Have just been and seen, wow.

OP posts:
Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 02:41

Anyway, nowt in inbox and coffee ready, who needs one?

OP posts:
CakeExpectations · 03/03/2013 02:44

Does anyone live near HQ? Fancy popping round and banging on the door?

IsThatTrue · 03/03/2013 02:50

I think they may need more gin after this! Never seen spam this bad and I've been here over 6 years!

This is not helping my night feed browse!! Angry

ClayDavis · 03/03/2013 02:50

Would it help if we wafted gin in their direction?

I think it was about this time Tech appeared on Thurs night/Fri am to sort the spam issue. I'm not sure whether he can help with the troll issue though.

Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 02:54

I have some shite wine, and a packet of bennies,...will that lure them out?

OP posts:
IsThatTrue · 03/03/2013 02:58

Maybe we should tie a bottle of gin onto a fishing rod and lure them out with it?

Chorusforpoormortals · 03/03/2013 03:01

Is that why they don't acknowledge cause you don't have gin...have malibu, where are they?
