It looks like we have really made a dent in the amount of spam on here. That's great!
I just wanted to offer a simple tip for tracking down both old and new spam in the areas you moderate. Many of you probably already do this. Perform a search periodically for "ipod". Then, copy the 'address' of the search result page and, after deleting a thread, paste it back into the address so it will perform the same search again. This is a quick way to deal with a lot of spam threads. It doesn't get the jibberish threads but it really saves having to find the spam by browsing through the many pages of great information this site provides.
Also, remember to use the option "physically remove thread" so we don't have to delete it twice.
This is a terrific site and that is greatly due to the work you do as moderators. Personally, I have been happy to help reduce some of the burden that the spammers produce.
